Mad Dog has not yet seen Mr. Macron's speech on youtube, but he is searching for it.
As reported in the States, it sounds delicious.
Hopefully, there will be a reaction shot from Mr. Trump, who was, reportedly, on the dias, when President Macron said:
"Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism,” Macron said. “Nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism. By saying our interests first... we erase what a nation holds dearest."
Hopefully, more American politicians will find the courage to say this very thing over the next few months.
Hopefully, more Americans will discuss what actually constitutes patriotism, as Henry David Thoreau defined it, has Smedley Butler defined it, as Lincoln lived it.
We can always hope.
