Oh well, back to ordering "freedom fries" and Liberty Toast...
President Trump on Tuesday ripped into French President Emmanuel Macron in a series of tweets -- hitting him on everything from his low approval ratings, to the French surrender to the Nazis in World War II, and suggesting U.S. wine is on par with French product.
Trump slams Macron for low approval ratings, French surrender to the Nazis, and wine
Donald Trump has hit out at French President Emmanuel Macron with a volley of tweets saying the French were "starting to learn German in Paris" before US intervention in the world wars, and rounding the attack off with an adapted version of his trademark refrain: "MAKE FRANCE GREAT AGAIN!"

Trump is a douche. Up to 85,000 French died in the Battle of France, not an American to be seen. Canada, Australia, South Africa and South America all make wines as good as the Americans.

Macron displays that he is also quite capable of Trumpian douchebaggery. But regardless of Trump the person, who is often full of bluster and "hot air", France and in fact the whole of Europe owe a debt of gratitude to the United States. Many an allied soldier died on the beaches of Normandy, and in the battles that ensued. Your comment "not an American to be seen" is an attempt to trivialize the sacrifices made by allied soldiers, men who gave up their precious lives to stop the Germans, and gave the French their country back.

It took the Japanese to get the US into WW2 and who knows if they would have gone to Europe if Hitler hadn't declared war on them first. There were no Americans to be seen when France went down in 1940. Aside from Pearl Harbor and the Aleutians, the US has never been attacked on its own soil. Trump talks through his ass. The US also owes a debt of gratitude to the countries that held Hitler off for over two years. The US didn't fight the godamn war by itself..
