Rhaegar has no other trueborn children alive....therefore Jon is rightful King. Yes but Rhaegar was not king when he died. He was a prince. When a successor dies, next successor would be next son not grandson. I don't mean Jon has no claim at all but because Dany preside over Jon, he has no chance.
