Trump reportedly has a 'bizarre' fascination with French President Emmanuel Macron and calls him for no reason

President Donald Trump reportedly has a "bizarre" interest in French President Emmanuel Macron and randomly calls him, leaving France's leader confused as to why Trump has reached out.
A former national security official told Politico that Trump wants to talk to Macron "constantly," sometimes calling him for no particular reason.
"Macron would be like: 'Hey what are we talking about?' These are very busy people. You don't just call to check in," the official said. "The standard is you don't have your principal call unless you're asking for something or trying to reward a behavior, either a carrot or a stick. You don't just randomly call."
A White House official claimed Macron requested a majority of the calls with Trump.

(18,124 posts)this POS potus THINKS everything revolves around him. He woefully was mistaken. He blew that with him and his grifter family walking into 1600 that first day, stinking up the WH. What class we lost that day with this orange, racist, sexist, fascist disaster somehow able to ascend to the position he now shames.
