President Trump was recently addressing the troops stationed in Qatar and decided that, in the week when the Allies are celebrating the World War II victory, it’s a better time than any to take a swipe at France.
The president was on stage talking to the troops and the Qatari leadership on a varied array of topics. He touched on Iran’s nuclear weapon program and how he would like Qatar to dissuade Tehran from going that path. But he finally landed on the topic that was clearly at the top of his mind: the Allied victory celebrations that have been ongoing throughout Europe. Trump was complaining that everyone was celebrating except the US, which was a travesty to him because, as he explained, “we won the war.”
