Trump jabs Macron: You'd be speaking German if it wasn't for US

President Trump on Tuesday ridiculed French President Emmanuel Macron for wanting to build a European army, and claimed citizens of France would all be speaking German if it wasn’t for the U.S. in World War II.

Macron proposed the creation of a “true European army” to protect itself from the U.S., China, and Russia, ahead of Trump’s visit to Paris last week. Trump responded Friday by calling the suggestion “ insulting.”

He followed up In a tweet Tuesday, saying France should be more worried about Germany, based on World War I and World War II.

“They were starting to learn German in Paris before the U.S. came along,” Trump wrote. “Pay for NATO or not!”

Truer words never spoken.

Also,I am curious about how well the French Army would integrate with the armies of other nations,when they have a contract that says they can't be forced to fight outside of France.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
