With that in mind France making war against us would have us quaking in our boots.

French President Emmanuel Macron said his country was willing to engage in a “shooting war” with the U.S. earlier this year, according to a report.
The Wall Street Journal reported this week that Macron made the decision earlier this year after American forces carried out a precision strike in Venezuela that led to the arrest of former dictator Nicolas Maduro.
The French president reportedly made comments about fighting Americans over Greenland, the desolate Danish island that could prove crucial to keeping non-NATO powers out of the North Atlantic.
With President Donald Trump expressing his desire to acquire the island as a territory for the U.S., coupled with the success of the raid to capture Maduro for drug crimes, Macron reportedly was prepared to fight one of his country’s oldest allies — an ally that twice saved it from German aggression in the last century.
In a report with multiple authors, the Journal reported:
It was almost midnight in Brussels and the leaders of Europe were locked in their fifth hour of an emergency meeting with a single theme for discussion: how to manage a breakup with America.
The new year was only three weeks old and President Trump, after removing Venezuela’s autocratic strongman, had briefly threatened to seize Greenland from Denmark. Around a circular table in the European Council headquarters known as “The Space Egg,” heads of government were venting so emotionally about the 47th president that some of the nearly 30 leaders present would later call the session “therapy night.”
In a room where no phones or recording devices were permitted, Macron reportedly said, “We are drawing a line here.”

They are absolutely insane.
When you count troops, bases, weapons, the lot, we’ve spent about $50 TRILLION defending Europe since the inception of NATO.
It’s essentially our entire national debt.
That’s actually funny. He wants to go to war with us even though his wife can knock him silly.
“according to a report” ... a SINGLE report ... btw, if mad magazine was still around and made some kind of ridiculous claim, would that count as “a report”? ... or maybe the Onion or The Bee could be sources of “a report” as well, right?
ROFL
Macron is about to let his alligator mouth overload his scrawny ass.
They are only doing this to keep their leftist governments in power by drawing off popular resentment of Trump.
They have no regard for any sensible approach to their own security.
He was going to fight the United States over Greenland, but won’t defend Paris from foreign takeover.
And he wants us to go to world war to defend him from Russia.
It only makes sense for the US to defend Greenland. What place does Denmark have there? What can Denmark do against Russia and China?
They can’t handle muslim migrants with knives and they want a shooting war with the USA? I’ve got 6 words of caution for them: Dis. Com. Bob. U. Lay Tor.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Him and whose army?!
I am going to take this “according to” report with a grain of salt.
It is the defense department of every nation to prepare for war with anyone anywhere. I am sure the pentagon has plans to invade Mexico and Canada at the same time. Will we? No. But there is always a plan.
Wow! That was close! I don’t know how I’ll get to sleep tonight!
LMAO.
France vs US?
If true, it would be an interesting weekend.
Surely, this catamite Frog doesn’t think he stands a chance against the United States in Greenland.....
It would be a slaughter..... Perhaps what the EuroTrash needs to realize how far out classed they are....
-Sink the French fleet in harbor.
-Take out a quarter of their aircraft on the runway.
-Take a troop ship or down a military transport in the air with 400 on board....
- Ping their subs.
-Roll into Greenland and hang out our sign.
-Pay each Greenlander $80k a year to leave.
It would be a quick awakening.
This ain’t soccer.
Women. All of them.
Monsieur Macron abruptly stood up at the breakfast table and yelled:
“Enough is enough! Hold my Creme’ Brulee’ Croissant and watch THIS!”
TDS is true insanity. And that’s what this is, TDS, nothing more.
Thanks a lot, Western Journal! Now I have beer and snot all over my phone!
