Lip reader reveals what French President Emmanuel Macron’s wife Brigitte said moments after shoving him in the face

French President Emmanuel Macron’s wife delivered a scathing four-word remark just moments after shoving him in the face, a lip reader has revealed.

Shocking footage showed Brigitte Macron, 72, place both hands on her husband’s face before shoving him firmly just moments after the president’s plane door opened upon arrival in the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi, on Sunday evening.

While the embarrassed-looking leader claimed the pair were “squabbling,” a professional lip reader has since decoded the shocking exchange.

“As the aircraft door opens, President Macron is seen turning toward Brigitte. In an unexpected moment, she pushes him in the face,” a lip reader told The Express.

After the door opened and Macron noticed that the cameras were on him, he then said “Hi” before raising his hand.

“Emmanuel then steps closer to Brigitte before composing himself and crossing to the other side. Moments later, he signals for her to follow him with, ‘Let’s go,'” the lip reader said.

“He thanks the pilot and waves at the cameras, trying to recover the public-facing image.”

There is another ‘Prize Winning AI Meme” featuring Kamala.

Kamala at Jimmy Carter funeral #impression #kamala # comedy
YouTube

It centers on Kamala walking into the church to take her seat during the Memorial for the late Pres. Jimmy Carter.
There is a spoken inner dialog satire, and it’s hysterical. I must have watched it over 50 times!
At the very end, Kamala and then First Lady Dr. Jill, get into a wig pulling, slap fight, both needing to be restrained by nearby former presidents.

I think she is 24 years older.

There is a recent Steve Kelley cartoon where the father has a newspaper with headlines about Macron and Belichick. His son asks why the coach doesn't marry the older woman and Macron marry Belichick's girlfriend.

Gingrich did something similar. His first wife was his high school math teacher. I don’t think the difference in age is was great as Macron & Brigette. Both instances are creepy.

He offers his arm; she ignores it, choosing to cling to the railing instead. As she passes, she appears to mutter, ‘Dégage, espèce de loser,’ translated in English, ‘Stay away, you loser.’

”Moments later, the lip reader claims Macron said, “Essayons, s’il te plaît” — which translated to, “Let’s try, please?” She then responds, “Non.” “His closing expression, and the phrase lipread as ‘Je vois,’ translated in english “I see” says it all,” the lip reader went on.

A good friend of mine is a woman from France, now an American citizen. You don’t want to be on her bad side. You definitely don’t want to be on her bad side.

At 72, Brigette is showing too much age. Macron and Keir Starmer might be a good fit or Starmer could spice things up.

Why do you have to be a lip reader to see her push him in the face?

“The duo, who have been married since 2007, first met in 1993 when Brigitte was a 39-year-old high school teacher and Emmanuel was her 15-year-old student and a classmate of her daughter.”

“GAHHH!!!!”

Ahhh the French...

Sounds like she understands him. Hard to argue with that.
