French President Emmanuel Macron pouted about President Trump’s comments about his marital issues on Thursday, calling them “neither elegant nor up to standard.”
This follows Trump’s scathing rebuke of NATO allies for being “bad allies” and a “paper tiger” alliance, where he took a jab at Macron and his wife, Brigitte. Trump is reportedly considering withdrawing the United States from NATO.
The president previously asked NATO for help securing the Strait, but they refused to get involved in the war. Trump has said that it was a test for NATO, and they failed.
Trump slammed Macron, “whose wife treats him extremely badly,” he said, trolling him for the “right to the jaw” that he famously took from his wife while stepping off his plane in Vietnam last year.
“He’s still recovering,” Trump said before blasting him for refusing to provide aid to the war in Iran.
Macron was asked to respond to Trump’s comments during a visit to South Korea on Thursday, and he appeared frustrated.
“The remarks I have heard, to which you refer, are neither elegant nor up to standard,” he said.
“So, I am not going to respond to them. They do not merit a response.”

Jordan has played a critical role in exposing fraud and corruption in Arizona’s elections and elected officials. His reporting on election crimes in Maricopa County led to the resignation of one election official, and he was later banned from the Maricopa County press room for his courage in pursuit of the truth. TGP and Jordan finally gained access after suing Maricopa County, America’s fourth largest county, and winning at the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. Conradson looks forward to bringing his aggressive style of journalism to the Swamp.
