Something's not quite right with Macron...


He seems like a little boy trapped in a middle-aged man's body. When he met Trump, that whole hand-squeezing competition thing was so childish, as was running in front of everyone to stand beside Trump for the photo op. Every time you see him on TV or hear about what's happening in France, you know he is WAY out of his depth, like a lost little boy. Macron is like a precocious 14 year old gifted student who won an essay contest and gets to play President for a day and tosses around naively idealistic unrealistic plans. Too bad it's all for real and the security of his country and the well-being of millions is at stake.

I wonder if the sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of his teacher/molester/wife caused certain elements of his personality to freeze at the young age he met her? I've heard that is a common problem among abuse survivors.

Apparently he's so tone-deaf to the French voters' problems that he can't even fake that he cares for them by holding his address in a proper law building with simpler furnishings. He's not fooling anyone if he thinks nobody notices how much he lives like a little pseudo-king.

It’s his tie.

Don’t worry, he’s fixing it.

Or is he taking it off?

Ooh la la!
