In a bizarre statement, former US President Donald Trump has once again taken aim at French President Emmanuel Macron, this time calling him “extremely badly treated” by his wife. The remarks come as a new wave of tensions between the US and Europe appears to be brewing.
The controversy began when Trump claimed that Macron’s wife, Brigitte Macron, treats him poorly and that he is still recovering from a recent injury. This is not the first time that Trump has made a personal attack on Macron, with whom he has a well-documented history of disagreements.
However, the latest remarks have sparked widespread outrage, particularly in France, where Macron remains a highly respected figure. French officials have called on Trump to cease his “unacceptable” behavior, which they say is aimed at undermining Macron’s authority.
“This is not the first time that Trump has made such outlandish claims about Macron,” said a French government spokesperson. “It is clear that he is trying to create divisions between our two countries, but we will not be swayed by such petty insults.”
The exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between the US and Europe, particularly with regards to trade and security issues. While Trump’s remarks are seen as an attempt to distract from his own domestic woes, many observers believe that they will only serve to deepen the divisions between the US and its closest allies.
History of Tensions

Reaction from France
The French government has called on Trump to apologize for his latest remarks, saying that they are an “unacceptable” attack on Macron’s reputation.
What’s Next?
As tensions continue to escalate, it remains to be seen whether the US and Europe can find common ground.
