Pres. Trump asks French Pres. Macron, 'Would you like some nice ISIS fighters? I could give them to you.' 'It is true you have foreign fighters coming from Europe, but this is a tiny minority of the overall problem,' French. Pres. Macron responds.
President Trump took aim at fellow NATO leader President Emmanuel Macron of France ahead of a summit here on Tuesday, branding the French president’s comments that the alliance was experiencing “brain death,” a “very, very nasty” and “insulting statement.”
“Nobody needs [NATO] more than France,” Trump said, “if you just look back over the last long period of time,” in an apparent reference to World War I and World War II. “I’m not in love with those companies,” he said. “If anybody is going to take advantage of our companies it’s going to be us,” he said.
President Trump has repeatedly chastised NATO allies for not contributing enough financially to the alliance.
