Anyone listening to Macron?

[tulipsandroses]

Why is it the president from another nation has given the most inspiring speech I have heard since
President Obama?

1. This Macron speech is a full-on assault on Trumpism.

4. Yep. Not much applause since he started talking.

The biggest applause line so far was for Science.

[TreasonousBastard]

5. And I betcha Trump is steaming at the applause it's getting.

[Doodley]

7. And Trump doesn't even know it, even if he is listening.

20. Good.

Macron has been on a pro-EU/anti-far right crusade lately, fully aware of the potentially dire consequences of a return to a divided Europe. He's more like the anti-Drumpf.

2. Maybe it's because we elected a schmuck?

[TheSmarterDog]

8. Whad'ya mean "we"?

The schmuck in the WH was Putin's pick.

[Doodley]

3. The guy is brilliant. Democrats need somebody like him!

[oberliner]

10. His popularity in France is lower than Trump's is in the US

Or at least in the same ballpark.

[Doodley]

12. Not surprising. They have a press that does its job.

[Tipperary]

15. I remember not too long ago when all of du hated Macron. Remember his comment

about women having more babies than they could afford? Du can be very funny. Hate Comey, love Comey. Hate Macron, love Macron. Amusing.

[Ron Green]

17. Love Bernie, hate Bernie. n/t

[Doodley]

18. I never hated him. Agree about the babies too.

24. I remember some people posting about the Toronto killer

And then stopped when he was identified. Interesting.

6. drumpf struggles to put together one coherent sentence.

Macron is intelligent and is an excellent orator.

[Doodley]

9. The GOP side can see what a real leader looks like!

[oberliner]

11. He is not popular at home

[ChubbyStar]

19. We heard it the first time you said it

[meow2u3]

13. Macron is delivering the coup de grace against Trumpism

Kaboom!

[Ninga]

14. Spectacular!,,,,

[Doodley]

16. Nationalism, isolation, environmental recklessness, fake news claims, abandoning Iran deal -

these are all Trump positions that Macron has argued against.

[CTyankee]

21. Just wondering...is he speaking in French with an interpreter or in English?

[tulipsandroses]

22. He spoke in English

Amazing Speech
And to think English is his not his first language. Yet English is supposed to be Trump's first language, and he can barely put a coherent sentence together.

23. He wrote it himself:
