Macron for the win.

Last edited Mon Dec 9, 2024, 12:51 AM - Edit history (1)

Donald Trump's cringe azz "strongman" handshake with French President Emmanuel Macron shows he's a tiny man.




Donnie lost the handshake dual as he struggles to get his hand back. 🤣 He sure lost that round.

Neener, neener he is such a wiener. 🤪

He sure isn’t right in the head. He probably tortured small animals when he was young.

It's a classic big, bad bully move that he does to Macron because he's short and slight.

This was Chump almost 8 years ago at the first NATO summit that he went to in Europe....

Marcon just showed trump that he will not be taking any shit from him.

It’s not the first time dump played that handshake game with Marcon…and once again he lost to the better man.

His arm, painfully up in the air, as he tries to pull his hand back.It looks, at the very end like he said ouch!

Oh and Marcon waved and did a sideways thumb at don...kinda saying, look at this asshole.

I didn't know about their handshake. Marcon had Trump's ticket and he punched it.

This was way back when Wilson got in trouble for providing correct info to Dubya about yellowcake uranium — he and his wife Valerie Plame both got destroyed by Dick Cheney by way of thanks.

Anyway Wilson hit the lecture circuit and ended up in Santa Barbara (UCSB was his alma mater) and proved to be an interesting speaker.

Someone warned Wilson that Saddam’s handshake went like this: as his guest approached with hand out and eyes on Saddam’s face, the strongman would hold his own hand much lower than normal. As the puzzled guest ducked his head, cameras would snap a picture of the foreign dignitary virtually bowing to Iraq’s glorious leader.

Wilson made eye contact, kept eye contact, and kept his own outstretched hand just a bit higher than normal, and it was Saddam who had to look down for the missing hand.

I hope that Macron is the first of a long string of male foreign leaders who meet bullying with a prolonged crushing grip of their own. The women leaders are strong in their own right, but I have no idea how a woman could handle having her hand crushed — except, have someone study films of how he acts to female leaders and decide in advance how to head off the obnoxious behavior — the shoving, ignoring, walking in front of, and crass comments.

Merci, President Macron.

Otherwise I use my grip to do important things like open pickle jars. (Tip: if stubborn tighten first and then try again!)

The gripper has two adjustable tension coils reaching over 500 psi! Go very slowly otherwise damage to the hand may occur.

Wonder if Trump will now have to bomb France on Day One because its leader humiliated him.
