The French will build a great great nuclear umbrella for the EU and will have the US pay for that.

We're gonna build a nuclear wall around Europe. A big wall. A HUGE wall. And America is gonna pay for it!
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
YUGE*
Year of United, Great Europe
Couldn't think of anything better
Will it be beautiful too?
Merci pour votre attention sure cette chose!
I'd be happy if world leaders just kept saying more and more obviously smartass shit like this until Trump is so enraged that he finally strokes out.
Taunting a senile lunatic is... probably not a great strategy. But god it would be funny.
It's an excellent strategy, so long as you can anticipate his next moves and preempt them.
It's a dumb strategy if he can rampage and you have no way to stop him.
Well, he is in full control of the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons.
France has it's fair share of nukes, too. And we're a far distance from a US/France war, much less a nuclear war.
But there's a very good chance Trump would fuck with the French economy. At that point, we all know Macron would fold instantly.
Appeasing the senile lunatic ended up with him being upset at us anyway. Might as well push as far as it goes, and then a centimeter more.
A senile lunatic with sole command over the American nuclear football, no less!
A part of me still likes to believe that someone was smart enough to cut the wire to the littel red button before he took office for the second time.
They're outright evil. And yes...they're irresponsibly stupid. But not THAT stupid. Miller and co. would have made sure that when the little red button gets pushed, it's on their time, not because the syphillitic orange muppet whose ass they have their hands up decides to have a dementia moment.
The football contains launch codes but he can't press the button himself.
200 years after Napoleon we’ll all end up speaking French anyway...
Playing the long game
Actually not too crazy. By demographic trends, some reckon French will be the dominant language due to its high prevalence in Africa, which is undergoing a demographic boom.
We just need a small imperialistic Québec era and we can get get North America all speaking French
We wish this happened but it didn't.

Don't worry, Trump doesn't understand fact checks. He'll think it's real, and that's all that matters.
So like the same thing they are doing in Haiti?
Fucking Wild. Friendly reminder that France is a horrible country run by people in a race to the bottom against England, Spain, and Germany.
The only country I can think of to have such a Euro-centric view while only knowing 4 of them is the US.
Those 4 have a long way to go before they're as shite as you.
It's all the same people. Transnational corporations, billionaire international investors and bankers, and their gaggle of Ivy League friends who all went to the same country clubs and boarding schools.
Bernard Arnault and Donald Trump have more in common than you and your local Parliamentarian.
Many countries have billionaire rulers. However Japan during WW2, or Belgian occupation in Africa are viewed as having taken worse actions than billing Haiti for independence.
The Belgian occupation of Africa and the French colonization of Hispaniola had quite a bit in common.
True but they quoted the collection after independence before claiming it's a race to the bottom.
Also shows that it's more than just those 4 countries.
I'm French, and while I can't speak for the other three countries, France is definitely heading the same way as the US
Maybe the fate of the US will inspire a different course. As an American, I definitely support our demise serving as a warning to others.
You can correct me but weren't the Huguenots a better example of terrible things you've done?
As much as I repel this action by the french State, I think it's quite unfair to criticize the currently leadership for that.
Did you read the part about the Coup? This is what started Haiti’s current spiral into chaos and was orchestrated by France, Canada and the US.

Oh yeah. Americans love their Regime Change.
Should this go in LeOignon community?
Eeh, proxy wars are never profitable.
Please tell me this is real!
