An arrogant politician expressing contempt for Donald Trump and his supporters experienced a surprising and humiliating defeat in late 2016 in our presidential election. A corresponding scenario seems to be playing itself out again in Paris.
A year and a half ago, in the wake of President Trump leaving the Paris Climate accord, France’s President Emmanuel Macron asked for a fight on climate change, in an address delivered in English, making it clear that his target was Donald Trump and the American electorate. As Andrew Bolt, writing for the Herald-Sun in Australia noted, he asked for a fight and “He got one” – but against his own citizens rebelling against taxation intended to drive them from their cars. His words, “France will not give up the fight,” have come back to haunt him.
...
Macron subsequently insulted President Trump in front of world leaders commemorating the hundred years’ anniversary of the end of World War I by denouncing “nationalism” and making it clear he meant Trump’s avowal of being a nationalist.
As anyone paying attention to Trump for the last 3 years knows, his policy is to hit back twice as hard when attacked. And hit back he did over the weekend, as Macron’s citizenry rose in revolt in the streets of Paris.

The Trump curse strikes again.
Thanks...interesting reading.
“France will not give up the fight,” -Macron
Uh.. France is famous for body odor, cheese, and surrender.
Good post. Thank you for the needed context.
I'd like to see a swift resolution to the Macron era -- but first, I want to see the protestors attack one of those EU armored vehicles and set it on fire while its crew scrambles for their lives.
The “Love France” comment kills it! (In the GOOD meaning of that term)
They are going to love that statement over there. The people know he means them.
You might want to rethink that surrender thing
bttt
All they need is some commie thugs to show up with enough organization and credit-seeking to make it into one of those 2-birds-1-stone kinds of events.
At work so went through the list kinda fast but haven’t seen anybody from FBI and DOJ on the list.
100%
Wait till it all collapses then watch the muzzies come in and take over.
We’ll be getting boatloads of French men and women soon looking for asylum.
Macron is speaking now
Says the answer to France’s revolt is education “reform”
I’m waiting for Macron to surrender.
The government already surrendered to the muzzies.
Just listened to his speech to the people......sweet talking the public....says he wants to raise wages, grant bonus to everyone at end of the year (tax free).....and throw Money at the educational systeM.
Then he tops it off saying they’re in economic crisis and there has to be reforms.
Meanwhile he has EU flagged vehicles (I looked, no French flag anywhere) assaulting the French citizens.
Unreal
