It doesn't matter if he is the rightful king. Dany has a large army and a dragon, it's not going to be easy for him to overthrow her if it's even possible at all. Varys' plan probably would have had Jon usurping the throne after they took KL. In which case, it wouldn't have made a difference.

Why not? What makes them her dragons and not his?
Dude, seriously? True she didn't squeeze them out of her cooch, but she's been with them since they hatched out their eggs. It would be like raising a dog from a puppy to an adult and then your nephew tries to claim that it's his because of birthright.
Lol.

From Dany's mindset, i think she was trying to do to Cersei what Cersei did to her, i.e. kill her loved ones (aka the innocent surrendered civilians) in front of her, which is why she flew so close to the Red Keep before she started napalming people. The fate of Kings Landing was decided the moment Missandrei uttered her last word, which Danerys actualized.
She's just insane at this point. There isn't really any rhyme or reason to her behavior this episode.
Anyway, I was convinced that Jamie would end up killing Cersei, but I'm actually pretty okay with how it ended for him and her.
Oh boy. These giant dragon killing scorpions sure are great. It'd be a real shame if we all suddenly became severely brain damaged and blind and were rendered totally useless with them right at the key moment.
Oh boy. I'm sure glad the queen spent a fortune bringing this big fancy from army over the sea to protect us. I'm sure they'll put up a great fight.
