The French are dominating the international message on climate change and humiliated Trump by rewriting a propaganda video produced by the White House to give the American people the facts.
The French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs released this video:
We’ve seen the @WhiteHouse video about the #ParisAccord. We disagree – so we’ve changed it. #MakeThePlanetGreatAgain. pic.twitter.com/8A92MBwe6c

The video was a response and fact check of this video released by The White House:
The Paris Accord is a bad deal for Americans, and @POTUS' action today is keeping his promise to put American workers first. pic.twitter.com/YfbnaymerP

After Trump had pulled the US out of the climate deal, President Macron addressed the American people in English and urged scientists and engineers to come to work in France. As if it wasn’t humiliating enough that France is trying to capitalize on the potential loss of scientific and engineering talent caused by Trump’s decision, the French government is now fact-checking the President Of The United States.
The embarrassments aren’t stopping as Trump has turned the presidency into an international laughingstock.
