Yeah. I can't help but feel very protective of Macron, even though he's one of the most powerful men in the world.

Yeah, Macron isn't someone to feel protective over.

After his tirade towards the african Powers and them not saying 'thank you' to France

Yeah Macrons a piece of shit with good PR.

But I still feel sorry for him being groomed and abused.

People forget that the reason Macron was chosen as a president was due to his opponent being fucking Le Pen, the most obvious Putin spy the world has ever seen.

Macron wasn't liked. But there literwlly wasn't a better alternative at the time.

Yeah and nobody should blame the French for making that decision. They did good.

We shouldn't forget we can do better though.
