Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy has been jailed for five years over a ‘criminal conspiracy’ plot involving some $50million in laundered cash from Colonel Gaddafi.

With full participation from Clinton and Obama in the destruction and chaos.

And what other world leaders?

I never expected the French to literally put one of their former presidents in jail. He must have made enemies in some other ways besides ‘money laundering’. Who’s toes did the little President step on? This grift can’t be the only reason.

He’s the French Silvio Berlusconi.

When can this happen to Biden, 0bama, and Clinton, here?

He’s the French Silvio Berlusconi.”

Exactly and with the same result it just took a bit longer.

The French judicial system has been completely captured by the left and is as expected irretrievably rotten. When Sarkozy was president, a women judge was ratted out with her office’s “mur des cons” (wall of morons), where photos of the president and his ministers were displayed with the mention “morons”. No punishment and she was even promoted years later under the leftist government that replaced Sarkozy.

I have no sympathy for the gnome Sarkozy but even less for the corrupt judges that persecute him.

Trump reneged on his campaign promise "because you'd be in jail" and gave Hillary a pass because he "was afraid of how it would make the country look".

Now we look WEAKER and more COWARDLY than the French!!

Moral IMPOTENCE!!

The French have long been the World Champions at stabbing one another in the back, general backstabbing, surrender and leaving men behind.

I seem to recall they tried to do the same to Chirac but he took office again and it stopped. I guess it never rose again after he left office because he didn’t go to prison.

Berlusconi is loved by Italians. He was the longest serving prime minister of post war Italy.
He is a corrupt tycoon, a fascist, right wing nationalist populist and he lies constantly, much like Trump... according to the media, you know?

good time to bring out the infamous viral photo that everyone thought was real. I am proud to say I had a very small hand in this one but I am not the person who put it together. I have tried to find that thread which was about traveling michelle but I cant find it. I think the poster is no longer here.

So what’s the story?
