Trump hits France’s Macron back: France was ‘learning German before US came along’

51

It is so refreshing to have a President in the White House who loves America and is willing to defend America. The enemedia, true to form, is presenting this exchange as Trump “attacking” France, but it was Macron who began it by claiming that France had to defend itself from the United States. As Trump rightly noted, without the United States, France wouldn’t even exist as an independent nation. The socialist worm who is President of France needs to study history.

“Trump hits France’s Macron back: France was ‘learning German before US came along,’” by Laura Widener, American Military News, November 13, 2018 (thanks to Mark):

President Donald Trump is hitting back a second time against French President Emmanuel Macron after calls for an E.U. “army.” This time he didn’t stop at one tweet.

Story continues below advertisement

Early Tuesday morning, Trump tweeted, “Emmanuel Macron suggests building its own army to protect Europe against the U.S., China and Russia. But it was Germany in World Wars One & Two – How did that work out for France? They were starting to learn German in Paris before the U.S. came along. Pay for NATO or not!”

“On Trade, France makes excellent wine, but so does the U.S. The problem is that France makes it very hard for the U.S. to sell its wines into France, and charges big Tariffs, whereas the U.S. makes it easy for French wines, and charges very small Tariffs. Not fair, must change!” he continued

He then took his ire to Macron’s approval rating, saying, “The problem is that Emmanuel suffers from a very low Approval Rating in France, 26%, and an unemployment rate of almost 10%. He was just trying to get onto another subject. By the way, there is no country more Nationalist than France, very proud people-and rightfully so!……..”

Trump ended his Twitter storm with “MAKE FRANCE GREAT AGAIN!”

Last week, Macron strengthened his calls for a European army – something he’s been calling for since he was elected last year – to defend the E.U. from the U.S., China and Russia.

“We will not protect the Europeans unless we decide to have a true European army,” Macron said during an interview on French radio, The Wall Street Journal reported last Tuesday.

“We have to protect ourselves with respect to China, Russia and even the United States of America,” he said.

On Friday, Trump addressed Macron’s comments for the first time, tweeting, “President Macron of France has just suggested that Europe build its own military in order to protect itself from the U.S., China and Russia. Very insulting, but perhaps Europe should first pay its fair share of NATO, which the U.S. subsidizes greatly!”

Despite last week’s remarks, the two leaders met amicably on Saturday for meetings and lunch ahead of the 100th anniversary of the World War I armistice in Paris.

However, Macron used his speech at the event to take a jab at Trump’s nationalism remarks. While President Trump did not respond publicly at the time, Macron doubled down on his criticisms of Trump again later in the day, this time over Trump’s Twitter habit.

“I always prefer having direct discussion or answering questions (than) making my diplomacy through tweets. But I think we had a very clear discussion. He is in favor of a better burden-sharing within NATO. I agree with that. And I think that in order to have a better burden-sharing, all of us do need more Europe,” Macron told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria….

For the record, at least some of the French soldiers in the Maginot Line continued to fight on against the Nazis even after the Fwench government surrendered. The nazis were forced to blast them out.

I know…consider my criticism directed to those that run the country.
I see history repeating itself with Muslims instead of Nazis.
Even worse France is welcoming their enemy and defending them as they abuse and murder French citizens.

Exactly felix! I’ve archived hundreds of articles, of day after day, of killings, rapes, you name it. It’s horrible to look at! They sure didn’t ask for it! It’s a wonder, all the citizens don’t come out in force, and have that “man”, tied up to roast. I can’t figure out, who’s the most ignorant of all those 20+ leaders over there, who’s allowed the enemy to just walk right in, and turn the country, into a daily horror show! At lease, we here in the US, get a timeout before the next killing of an American, from those “immigrants” hands.

Yeah, sadly France’s citizens are going to have to surrender their country, to the thousands, if not millions of “immigrants”, that their “leader” just let walk in, and make themselves at home. Without firing a single shot!

Trump is right, needless to say; other nations within the fetid and gormless EU, also, were beneficiaries of America’s military might, as the Arsenal for Democracy. If it weren’t for the Marshall Plan that aided the, now, EU nations recovery, economically and infrastructure, France’s and of course, Germany’s reconstruction would have taken decades. Macron is the quintessential ingrate as is Fuhrer Merkel. All of the Western Democracies would speak another language today, German, Japanese or Russian.

There are Americans, also, who choose to shun the nation that remains the sole Beacon of Democracy. At the top of the list are the Democrats, the Liberal-Fascists, and others suffering from a diktat of hatred, prejudices, antisemitism, and detestation of this Constitutional Republic. Macron is symptomatic of the Leftist-Fascism’s hubris. Once again, as it has historically, France, the EU is not merely servile to its adversaries but conspiring to betray its culture and governance.

Not really, Robert, Obama is a given, the most corrupt, divisive and treasonous man, and once upon a time President of a nation he is bent to destroy. There are times when mentioning this vile, vain, villainous a-hole is just too much for the old heart. Actually, now that his name is mentioned, the Dems and MSM have the audaciousness to blame Trump for what you mentioned, the dividing of the black/white communities and his placing targets on the backs of Law Enforcement. Now, it is time to take an antacid or twenty. Take care.

“It is so refreshing to have a President in the White House who loves America and is willing to defend America.”
Really, tell that to all the Americans, who have died, and will die, at the hands, of the thousands, if not millions, of “immigrants”, we have in this country! Or the thousands of soldiers that have died, and are still dying, in some muslim land? Which of one of THOSE countries, will Trump make great again? How much more money will they spend on doing that?
And how can someone ( a supposed christian), who hosts a Ramadan dinner in the White House, be someone who loves America? Or allows many schools to teach our young children, how to walk, talk, dress, learn the 5 pillars of muslim faith, and be good little muslims (Is there EVEN a Secretary of Education anymore? Don’t hear a peep from him/her!)
Is he making Iraq, or Afghanistan, or Syria, or Yemen, great again? I appreciate what he said to Macron, but he’s not doing a thing about the MANY muslims he’s letting into this country! This wonderful supposedly “low” number, coming into this country NEXT year, is added to the thousands (or millions), we already have in the US!

Trump to Cap Refugees Allowed Into U.S. at 30,000, a Record Low

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/17/us/politics/trump-refugees-historic-cuts.html

It’s bad enough, that their slowly taking over everything in this country. Now we have them as our police, our teachers, our mayors, and the list goes on and on, and no one is doing a thing about it! So why not let them slowly take over our Congress too! Will Trump say or do anything about that? Or Asia Bibi, will he help her? I doubt it!

I would show all my archived articles where Americans are killed, in almost every state, but everyone should know about those. We got Imam’s preaching hate of America, in this country, we got Southern California a hotbed of islamists, we’ve had about 20 plus muslim training camps in this country, for years now (I should know, one is in MY state), and the UN is saying “migration is a human right”, and is getting ready to put that down in black and white! When are we going to leave the UN? But most importantly, when is this country going to be great again? How many more Americans will have to be killed, before our “leader” does something about it??

Ironically, were the EU to decide to raise a communal military, France and Germany would be the two weakest links. With that massive influx of ragheads, where are you going to find the troops?

Two of the most common phrases floating about are, “There aren’t any Germans anymore” and “Paris isn’t Paris anymore”.

The military for France and Germany!
If they think MUSLIMS will fight other Muslims for the infidel they are mistaken.
Muslims will unite against the infidel and then fight it out amongst fellow Muslim sects.
Their enemy is Islam not China, Russia or the U.S.. Macron is absurd!

Eurabia concept describes the process where Europe led by France and Arab nations started the Islamization and Arabism of Europe. As a result it weakening its existing culture and undermining an alleged previous alignment with the U.S. and Israel. Since the mid-60th France, led by De Gaulle, had the vision to establish an allied between North Africa and Arab states and France. All the Muslims that immigrate to France and later on to EU are the outcome of this process.
As a result of Eurabia, Europe has today about 50 million Muslims that like change its culture from Christianity to Islam. Bravo France. Well done. You eat what you cooked. Bon Appetite.

This process started WAY BACK in the day’s of Napolean’s Egyptian campaign when migrants started resettling in France. Process was greatly accelerated in the ’59 campaign of France in Algeria, when those migrants started coming over. You’re correct about a speeded-up process with the formation of the EU (boy, was that ever a mistake, Europe, what were you thinking?)

This idiot, Emmanuel Macron, is too ‘thick’ to recognize that France’s greatest enemy is Islam and the Muslims he is allowing to flood in. Get your army to drive them out, you half-baked nincompoop!

As to his army fighting the U.S., Russia and China, since when could France’s army fight it’s way out of a wet paper bag? It took multiple nations to prevent France being over-run in WW1 and took multiple nations to liberate France in WW2.
