Ah finally someone translated it. It's a good speech.
Wow that was a really good speech, and everything he says is true!
Yes France was right all along, we need an EU military army and military cooperation.
I personally now have to admit that I was wrong on that point.
France is the same as the US, just a few years behind.
This stupid senator is part of a party led by I anti-ecology, homophobic islamophobic dumbass, they just all want to do like Trump, just in their own time and version.
Opposing the US is just about taking advantage of the situation to say "look, I am reasonable, unlike them" and has nothing to do with what they think.
Where are you getting the anti ecology and the far right racism from?
It sounds like you're describing the Regroupement Nationale of Lepen, but this is the Les Indépendants party, which is center right by France's standards - it's basically a party aligned with Elizabeth Warren's views.
In this super propagandized environment we're in, i find comments like this deplorable (if not dangerous)... Unless it's an honest mistake?
This speech reflected nothing that is like Trump.
He defends EU (the closest alliance France is in) This is contrary to how Trump behaves towards allies.
He also strongly defends democracy, also very contrary to how Trump behaves.
Being afraid of something that is evidently harmful and dangerous is not a phobia.
So the only thing remaining is that he may be homophobic, which is irrelevant in this context. And yes he absolutely sounds a lot more reasonable than Trump.
France is the same as the US, just a few years behind.
they just all want to do like Trump
