French President Emmanuel Macron has reiterated calls for a European Union army, this time saying that it is needed to protect the bloc from China, Russia, and even the United States.
The progressive leader, a proponent of greater EU federalisation which will result in the reduction in sovereignty for European nations, told Europe 1 Monday night that the bloc needs a “real European army”. “We have to protect ourselves with respect to China, Russia and even the United States of America,” Macron said, according to Agence France-Presse.

“We will not protect the Europeans unless we decide to have a true European army,” he said while on a tour of the former Western Front in Verdun, northeast France, to commemorate the centenary of World War One — a war in which some 116,000 Americans lost their lives defending Europe, including at the Second Battle of the Somme in 1918 which resulted in an Allied battle victory at the cost of 15,034 United States, and 5,600 British Empire lives.

I very specifically said "to take over their country". We had/have troops in Iraq and Afghanistan in order to reduce the influence of radical Muzzlimes so that they don't import more terrorism to our soil. Not to move Americans into those 2 countries after we eliminate the native population. DUH.
I can think of a couple of times a real European Army was formed to take on the US. We kicked your ass all 5 times. King George in 1776 and 1812. Spain in 1898. The Germans and their allies in 1918, and again in 1945. Go ahead idiot boy, roll the dice again.
Napoleon was not born April at all.
If you don’t mind Trump being a grandpa married to a mere mama, then Macron being married to a grandma is not a good reason to dislike him.
