French President Emmanuel Macron rejected calls to resign and today blasted his opponents as his latest government was threatened by two no-confidence motions that could bring it down by the end of the week.
I wonder if that was what this exchange was about. Trump may have been discussing Macron working with his rivals and trying to correct France's problems, or perhaps he encouraged Macron to step down. Macron may be determined to do whatever he wants, regardless if it's in France's best interest or not.
It also may have been about Ukraine, or the Russian oil / gas, or China trade.
Who knows?
What we CAN gather is that Macron is a weasel. No surprise there.
I would seriously doubt that. I wouldn't put it past Macron... but even he's not stupid enough to do that in a public forum where people would know what was being said.
Macron's biggest problem at this point is just trying to politically survive. He's probably making deals with the power brokers in the EU just to keep himself in office.
Trump was likely advising Macron not to do anything stupid.
Macron is replying "Stupid is my middle name!"

That was macrons warning to Trump, per the article.
Why the downvote? u/SidesWithAngels simply spoke the truth.
Its because theres always 1 Dbag per thread and you just found them.
Sorry, headline copied as per article, should read:
Trump's ominous warning to Macron at Egypt summit. Macron: 'You will see what is about to happen'
You are correct, they messed up the headline.
is macron threatening Trump's life?
