Trump, arriving in Paris, lashes out at Macron over defense remarks
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-macron-idUSKCN1NE2HN
PARIS (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump lashed out at French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday, saying it was very insulting for him to suggest Europe should create its own army to protect itself from potential adversaries.
Very insulting, but perhaps Europe should first pay its fair share of NATO, which the U.S. subsidizes greatly, Trump added, returning to his repeated demand that European nations do more to help fund the Western alliance.
Macron said on French radio on Tuesday that Europe needed a real army to reduce reliance on the United States for defense in the face of a resurgent Russia.
We wont protect Europeans if we dont decide to have a real European army, Macron said.

He's attacked multiple reporters, and has been exceptionally rude. He's scared. I bet his bowels are cramping 24/7.
