See, it wasn't the tax increase or the elitist behavior of the French government. It was the Russians the whole time!

First they blame Trump, and now it’s the Russians. They must have a “What Happened” list as long as Hillary’s.

As if the French, Germans, and other nations in the EU don’t have their hands in these prtotests as well.....

No wonder the world needs an ‘enemy’ scapegoat. They couldn’t possibly blame themselves or each other.

France always looks outside their country to pin blame for their own financial stupidity; they think that increasing taxes will solve their squandering of citizens money. France is the highest taxed country in Europe surpassing Denmark.

I'm beginning to think Russians write half the articles for rags like Bloomberg so countries will waste money digging for Russians whenever there's anything from a public demonstration to a blocked up toilet in a public building.

Nothing like having people chase non-existant spooks to burn up your opponents money.

Russia has a tad of experience with how overspending on military and intelligence while the core industry of the country goes to Hell in a hand basket works out. If Russia is the cause of all ills, then apparently they've got half of Congress under control and running down down that same path thinking, "it can't happen here".

If not, there are just a lot of people in leadership positions in the US who are every bit as stupid as the useful idiots slobbering after Obama or Hillary.

And Macron won’t even have to write his own book. He can just put his own picture on the front cover of Hillary’s book. I’ll bet Macron can get them in the bargain bin for about a buck apiece.
