Trump's Twitter storm: "MAKE FRANCE GREAT AGAIN!"

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday took to Twitter and set sights on French President Emmanuel Macron.

Below is a series of tweets in question, where Trump brings up and criticizes a range of issues - from the idea to form a "European army" to trade tariffs - and ends with the message "... MAKE FRANCE GREAT AGAIN!"

Emmanuel Macron suggests building its own army to protect Europe against the U.S., China and Russia. But it was Germany in World Wars One & Two - How did that work out for France? They were starting to learn German in Paris before the U.S. came along. Pay for NATO or not!

On Trade, France makes excellent wine, but so does the U.S. The problem is that France makes it very hard for the U.S. to sell its wines into France, and charges big Tariffs, whereas the U.S. makes it easy for French wines, and charges very small Tariffs. Not fair, must change!

The problem is that Emmanuel suffers from a very low Approval Rating in France, 26%, and an unemployment rate of almost 10%. He was just trying to get onto another subject. By the way, there is no country more Nationalist than France, very proud people-and rightfully so!........
