      The problem with France is it has PARIS!
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Yes, but our Paris has mostly Texans, not Frenchies.

              Wonderful! Macron will be good for France and, frankly, France is far more useful than the US is.

                Dunno about that. Macron is super-far right in economic policies. He's the Act party of France.

                France is far more useful than the US is.
                Well that generally goes without saying. The French have given us pastries and creme brulee.

                    unlike Trump, le pen never really had much of a chance. I guess this is goodbye france. I was hoping to still visit it while it was still around but I'm pretty sure visiting Mogadishu or Algiers would be cheaper (and safer)
                    Yeah, its to bad Putin didn't get another of his fascist friends elected in order to further split the European Union and weaken the Nato alliance.

                        Maybe in white majority countries, not in most of the world. When did you become a white supremacist shuny? Between you pretending white people are the total sum of humans on the planet and starlight/gerbil loading up the concentration camps I'm starting to think tweb might be a bit too right wing for me.

                          Yes, continuing to fill up france with savages and utterly annihilating it is obv superior to your crazy fantasies of Putin invading Europe (putin can barely invade a small part of ukraine without the Russian economy tanking).

                            macron wants to reduce the tax rate from 56% to 52%, he's practically Bastiat.

                                Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101
