ProbablyYes, so obviously bringing himself and his entire entourage to France means he didn't want to go in the first place and found the rain to be a convenient excuse.

He demonstrates the worst about himself without any help from me!
You may not bear him any hatred directly, but you are essentially repeating that of others. Much of what you are expressing is simply what you are being told to think. No matter what the correct interpretation, you seem intent on holding to the one that certain others spin. After all, Trump is a nationalist, which is the opposite of a patriot, right? Wrong. Dead wrong. But evidently Macron said it anyway. With that kind of doublespeak, what hope is there?I bear the man no hatred. I hate a lot of what he says and does, as most right-thinking people do, because it is profoundly immoral. Like this latest episode. I make no apology for that hatred. None whatsoever. I regard it as my moral duty as a Christian.
So are you going to Paris for Christmas? We hear that Paris is dirtier than San Francisco and a lot like Malmo. Do you go to Malmo?
Worst being what, exactly? And I thought ad hominems weren't allowed here.Causing you, a self professed Christian, to demonstrate the worst about yourself.
Pity you can't see that.
I have no time for nationalism of any stripe: we've seen the monstrous evil it's antichrist spirit has caused over here last century.You may not bear him any hatred directly, but you are essentially repeating that of others.

You are badly missing the point. My post was not about nationalism but about the spin that seems to have you in its dizzying spell. You whine about Trump, but seem deaf and blind to all of the misleading voices and actions of globalism, socialism, communism, and Middle Eastern versions that are now pouring into your territory unopposed.I have no time for nationalism of any stripe: we've seen the monstrous evil it's antichrist spirit has caused over here last century.
In absence of the other, who do you believe would fare worse, the United States or France? The United States or the UK? In stark opposition, if faced with complete non-support, just who is dependent on whom?
One on one, you have a point. But it is the collective alienation of long standing European allies that concerns me...and light to concern you. After 9/11, the 'Rest of the West' stood with you. If 9/11 we're today, I'm not so sure....
