He’s right, we will remember. We’ll remember how France helped stand up to an authoritarian regime despite that regime’s attempts at intimidation
Well we did it already for the Irak WMD episode. We've been called cheese-eating surrendering monkeys ever since.
So in fact we don't care very much what the US thinks or remembers.
They could have pretended they were going for a legal military reason, Iran has done enough stuff to find a thin veener of casus belli. But they didn't even care to try and hide it.
Sane-washing. Pretending that the things coming out of his mouth aren't stupid or incomprehensible. If the news is pretending he makes sense, the country only knows he doesn't if they actually listen to him speak, and no one actually listens to him speak.
We will remember your treason, you child raping murderer. We will remember every crony, accomplice, boot licker, and family member. Every last one will face justice.
At this point getting Trump to tweet grumpy about your country it the sign that you've made it is a nation.
Oh no the administration who don't value their allies are mad at us. Big whoop, it's not as if being an ally of the US is even particularly beneficial anymore.
France always acts like this for some weird reason. It's not like they are meaningfully anti-American imperialism or anything, but they pull up stupid shit like this all the time.
I believe you're referring to them standing up to the international rule of law that they partly helped create. It's their way of "exerting soft power" as opposed of flying in flaccid cock in hand, popping a blue one, and fucking over some undeserving poor sod like America always does.

International rule of law that selectively applies to the countries these European states deem "terroristic". European countries facilitate and help the American state in every way, they are the beneficiaries of the capitalist system, yet people, especially liberals, act like somehow Europeans are some enlightened people. They are the rule loving anti-American establishment.

Yeah, whatever. Like, you are not completely avoiding the fact that Macron literally messaged Trump personally, and said, "Hey Donald, leave Greenland alone, we can talk about Iran."
This entire thing is stupid. Americans thanking the French for "disciplining Trump", American liberals' weird fixation towards anti-Trumpism, instead of actually comprehending the issues of the black people, and the working class, for which both the Republicans and the Democrats are to be blamed.
The American mind always wants a savior. The American white MLs want Xi to save themselves from American fascism, but they will never rise up against their own government (because they are too comfortable). The American mind always looks outside to fix American imperialism. You might be a liberal, then I don't want to argue with you.
I can't believe I am being dogpilled for this objectively true opinion lol.
What are you on about? Why is it the job of France of all places to sort American political issues out? The French just don't want to be drawn into this war, it's not some political attack against Trump, it's just them defending themselves from the inevitable fallout.
If you are viewing this as some sort of anti-trump administration political manoeuvring, that's your problem.

I mean if nothing else this is also the message No Kings protests are supposed to send in the US.
The attendance to them is massive for a reason.
Most people in the US hate Trump and his policies, yes that is a paradox, but also it is true in many ways too.

Of course, Americans don't learn their own history. You know the saying, in America 100 years is a long time.

I hope we balkanize so the people you're actually referring to can get the fuck out and stop dragging the rest of us down with them constantly

I love how he thinks this is negative PR for the people who he thinks is wronging him.
No you are telling me who deserves applause.

He's had the benefit of most of the American media running interference and translating (or whatever you call it) for him for several years now.
Edit: just think about stuff like the Epstein files taking a back seat to anything
