Bastille Day, 2017

[2aguy]

is America perfect? No

is America better than the rest of the world? FUCK YES

Sadly, most Americans share your opinion.

No....proudly. The United States has been a great gift from God to the world......and hopefully we can maintain what we have accomplished.

President Trump has accepted France's invitation to the 'Défilé du Quatorze Juillet'. This celebrates one of the world's oldest alliances and friendships. Trump and Macron will review the Frence military parade together on the Champs Elysee.

You are misinformed as la Fête nationale has nothing to do with a France-USA alliance but is a commemoration of the storming of the Bastille on 14 July (le quatorze juillet) 1789 and la Fête de la Fédération celebrating the unity of the French nation on 14 July 1790.

Although this year is the centenary of the American entry into the Great War which began three years earlier, it sullies the celebration of le quatorze juillet to have invited such an obnoxious low-life as the minority president of the USA who said during a speech at the annual conservative CPAC convention in Maryland that his friend, Jim, would not visit France anymore because it is too dangerous and that "Paris is no longer Paris". Shame of President Macron for insulting the French people by having such a disreputable person as Donald Trump in Paris today.

And last year, a muslim in a rental truck ran over 89 people and injured over 400 others......there is that....but let's not dwell on what actually happens in France.....or the charlie hebdo incident, or the Paris rock concert...............

Can't wait to hear his remarks when that day comes....

"Thank you President Micron. Y'know French Republicans built this bastle, and they made the Brits pay for it. Amazing, incredible bastle. The Brits were laughing at 'em. They were laughing! Of course my bastle in New York is much bigger. Many people have said that. Thousands and thousands of people on the rooftops, chanting my name and holding up copies of Time Magazine. It's incredible. I can't wait to tweet about how many French people took off work on a Friday to come out to see me --- almost as many as my inauguration -- and of course all the French women are here to flirt. That's to be expected. But let me tell you more about me....."

​

Maybe this year muslims won't run over 89 people and injure over 400......that would be nice..right?

Maybe "thousands and thousands of them will dance on rooftops in Nouvelle Jersée".

Ah oui. You mean "Liberalism".

Remember when Martin Mull's entire act was playing a blond narcissistic asshole and everybody actually GOT the joke?

What the fuck happened? Merde.

That was mean, Pogo, but oh so funny

There is no reason for France and America to be anything but friends.

I don't like Trump but I DO NOT like him being in Paris on Bastille Day. It's too dangerous. Paris is not secure and Trump is a big ol orange target.

During the American war against Iraq, Americans had nothing good to say about the French.
How fickle.

France was the only ally that gave good advice. De Villepin and Chirac could have handled it better, but eschewing illegal invasion was wise counsel.

Paris is not dangerous; that's hokum.

Okay.

I have never understood why the French are so enamored of that day when innocent people were slaughtered and initiated the Reign of Terror over their fellow countrymen.

The French Revolution has been the model of every leftwing bloody ascension to power ever since.

At least our quest for independence started with a a declaration.Their revolution started with a jail break!

Tell that to the victims.

They had just had all of their white flags of surrender cleaned and didn't want to have to use them in Iraq.

You know French tanks have a unique transmission. Only 2 forward gears but 5 in reverse!

For sale: French rifle. Never fired. Only dropped once.

Wish we had this guy back, so he can show us what a handshake is supposed to look like

 

[basquebromance]

Just look at all these Trump protesters in France

I lived in Paris for a while, never felt in danger. Not until I went to London, which was all on edge about bombings. They'd had quite a few recently.

Funny nobody thought to make up Association Fallacies about what religion the IRA followed though. Things that make ya go hmm.
