French President Emmanuel Macron recently visited the US in President Trump’s first official state dinner. And plenty was made about how “handsy” the two were. And if you haven’t seen the photos, then you might think that is an exaggeration, but seriously, it was adorable.
They truly got along.
Is that enough for you?
Ok, one more:
But here’s what I find interesting: Macron is nothing like the “yes-men” that Trump normally surrounds himself with, and CERTAINLY not of the ilk to toe any kind of party line and placate him and his policies.
Hell, Macron, literally stood up in front of Congress and PREACHED the kind of forward thinking leadership that this country so desperately needs (and had not so long ago.) For example, he spoke of taking care of this planet, rejoining the Paris agreement and being responsible for our actions, as there is no “Planet B.”
He also spoke of “human rights, the rights of minorities and shared liberty [as] the true answers to the disorder of the world.”
I mean imagine you’re Trump and you’re sitting at home, with a cheeseburger in your lap, practically on the brink of starvation after sitting through that fancy-shmancy State Dinner and all of it’s fancy ass food, and there on your lovable idiot box you see your brand new crush talking some serious noise about your whole philosophy in front of the whole school. It’s either a betrayal and a major one at that. I mean how could he do that to you after all the intimate touch, private conversations and secret kisses in front of the media.
Or…
This Frenchmen is just “negging” the shit out of Trump. I mean is it really possible, that for the first time we finally see the kind of man Trump wants? Macron is affectionate, passionate, and not afraid of shit. He’s confident, attractive man’s man, with that delicious accent, and not only counters Trump at every turn, but knows exactly how to drive him wild with a flashy, gas-lighting song and dance in front of his friends and coworkers.
Was Trump leaving the Paris agreement in the first place, just the first flirt from a potential suitor? Was he just trying a boy, finding out his place in the world, trying to get the attention of an attractive man he fancies?
For all the minorities, disenfranchised, foreign and female victims of Trump’s policies in the last year, it’s almost a glaring oddity that there hasn’t been a more blatant attack on gay rights in this country… especially considering two things. One, a TON of movement for the LGBTQ community happened during the Obama administration (and you know how Trump feels about that), but secondly and maybe more importantly, it is widely known that VP Mike Pence is chomping at the bit to roll back the hard fought rights of those, quote end quote, deviants.
We know in most situations the phrase “me thinks the lady doth protest too much” is super sexist. But it’s also well applied in tons of situations. The loudest anti-gay frat boy is the most likely candidate to jump out the closet. The guy tells the most “your mama” jokes probably spoon feeds his mother right out of his mouth each night. And the guy surrounding himself with so many “yes men” running around the “locker room” bragging about “grabbing pussy” might just be looking for that one cheek kissing, hand holding, gaslighting, foreigner, no-man to fly across the sea, grab his hand and win his heart.
Am I right?
You tell me.

He looks happy as a clam. More hugs and kisses from this man then I have ever seen the first lady give him.
Trump is looking in happy mode but the Trump attitude against Muslims is disgusting I think Trump's attitude should be peaceful but thanks for sharing this awesome post with us @writesbackwards
Oops , if it is the opposite sex, this looks very friendly, but they are men, like homosexuality.
First off don't read too much into the kissing picture. Kissing on the cheek, two , three or four kisses depending on the region of France or even depending on your family's MO, is how many French people of both genders greet each other.
Then @sahariar01 in his comment is right on. Macron and Trump are brothers to different mothers. Both are busy preying on the more vulnerable sections of society (the workers, the sick, the elderly) to give huge financial benefits to corporations and the wealthy. The difference is that Macron is easier on the eye and he can string very nice-sounding sentences together, even if at the end of the day when you analyze them, it's all smoke and mirrors. Macron is a globalist who likes to hobnob with the would-be US Masters of the Universe. This representative of a country that used to be influential despite its small size has been busy selling off French industries to American companies. Don't believe a thing he says about saving the planet, human rights, or anything that approaches a lofty and worthy ideal. He is a Rothschild creature who yearns for and wields power (his nickname in France is Jupiter) and has been lining his pockets along the way.
Now pass me the barf bag.
I don't know a thing about Macron, but I am 100% sure your statements about #45 are true. If you don't write for a living you could have a bright future in that vocation.
I just share my thoughts thats it
Absolutely, that’s the beauty of the thing! Through all the various threads we can have banter and dialogue and augment each other’s posts. We Steemians seem to be a passionate and militant bunch, and I find a lot of posts and comments to be good sources of information as well as a springboard to further thinking and questioning.
Ahhh. How sweet. I think they're in love.
Nothing much to say about politicians. It's all the same cycle as before.lol
They Both are brothers from another mothers 😍😍😍
Well, many journalists comment that trump has become antidiplomatic in bilateral relations, and it is rare to see trump with such sensitive palms and unusual when talking with macri and even in the photos shows some images as when someone embraces a child with affection and he says you are good because otherwise I punish you that is what these images reflect, and on the other hand, thinking: you do not know who you are getting into, well, you do not know if there is empathy between these two presidents and help improve bilateral relations.
I think trump is force to reckon with, his political and business minded ability is bringing some positive change to the world.
it was kinda creepy and trump aint that bad

STOPGay behavior? Intimate friends with benfits? Probably that second.
Maybe i was exagearting with the first one, but all americans - from north to south- always exagerate everything about europeans...
Te felicito por tus medallas amigo @writesbackwards , sigue informandonos.
That awkward moment when Trump can hold hands with Macron but not with his wife. Maybe Trump wants something new, maybe he found his ideal man haha jk. But politically speaking that's good for America, Trump letting Macron to speak the things he should do or say. We can say that he's considering the thoughts of Macron which is great but let's not forget it's Trump.
DO you see I drew a political cartoon of MELANIA TRUMP wearing the WHITE HAT she wore to this Macron visit. Noone wants to go to Paris anymore because of all the rapeugees
