LONDON — It was a NATO anniversary celebration designed specifically to avoid unwanted disruptions.

But those drama-free plans were upended Tuesday when President Emmanuel Macron of France aggressively challenged President Trump during a televised appearance. And early Wednesday brought another surprise, as a brief video surfaced that showed grinning world leaders at a Buckingham Palace reception apparently commiserating about Mr. Trump’s unorthodox ways.

Here's a link to the video. It really doesn't say much other than Trudeau laughing about how Trump's team jaws dropped to the floor when the President said something or other

Be careful about those grumbles, boys & girls, POTUS has 65+ Million devoted followers...

And a LOT of them are in FULL COMPLIANCE with the spirit of the 2nd Amendment to the United States of America’s Constitution.

(Google if if you need a clue)

And the New York Times thinks that is a bad thing,....

...That PRESIDENT Trump doesn’t kowtow to the whims of wimpy european ‘leaders’, against the interests of the American people, like most of the past presidents did.

Well, aren’t they pretty much a bunch of socialists anyway? Naturally they don’t like his America first policies. Screw them.

It’s been 74 years since VE day, and France didn’t learn a thing from that war, then or since.

Europe is a sitting duck. It’s falling in on itself.

Their immigration policies will be their own undoing.

They don’t meet their promised funding for their own military, and they are hell bent to move as many potential terrorists on their soil as they can.

I’d laugh at them, but I don’t get pleasure from seeing people destroy themselves.

We’re not asking anything more from them, than to protect themselves and keep their nations strong.

For this they hate us.

Sound’s like wall to wall Democrats.

“commiserating”
It doesn’t sound to me that these
characters have much sympathy for
our president. They mock him.

Good catch. That was a poor choice of words by whomever wrote the headline. commiserate | kəˈmizəˌrāt | verb [no object] express or feel sympathy or pity; sympathize: she went over to commiserate with Rose on her unfortunate circumstances.

Tom Wolfe once said (in reference to criticism directed at himself by the likes of Updike and Mailer) that when you’re the lead dog, all the little dogs behind you are always nipping at your ass.

Oh brother. What an embarrassing post. So what exactly do you have in mind? In my experience, braggards/blowhards are usually cowards.

Part of their conversation:
“Dang, this guy don’t nuance anything - he’s always so blunt and clear about what he means....how we gonna understand that kind of crap?”

The reasons for leaving NATO are growing by the day. It’s pretty clear that the other NATO leaders don’t like or respect President Trump. Macron was right when he said NATO was “brain dead”. It’s leaderless, lacks direction and purpose, and has outlived its usefulness. So why are we still part of NATO to begin with?
