His rhetoric has also encouraged conspiracy theories and, in some cases, led to real-world violence, as seen in the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. Many view his willingness to manipulate facts and disregard truth as one of the most damaging aspects of his leadership.
Same in the UK. Newspapers there are realising people don't like him so they are now distancing themselves from him... basically "That American right wing guy is crazy! ... but ours at home are still good and not like HIM so don't you worry!"
Exactly. I for one won't be doing any free advertising for the Daily Mail just because they've decided to throw a few pot shots at MAGA from the side-lines.
Does MAGA represent a worse set of politics than Le Point? Sure. But "nothing like" is too far. As I just highlighted, they are attacking wikipedia in the same way and for the same reasons as MAGA. For a lot of the centre-right/right, MAGA is proving a very convenient "faire-valoir"
I do think wikipedia is slightly biaised when it comes to right wing influencers, I remember a french right wing influencer complaining about having words like "white supremacist" in his bio when he never promoted that
no, he was complaining on twitter and he asked them to add sources of his white supremacism, and I remember visiting the wikipedia page, and there was no source indeed
It's a common issue on pages related to living individuals, most people don't like the way they are portrayed and summarized
I'm still waiting for TIME to have such courage, but since I unsubscribed when they knighted him with Person of the Year I may never find out. He's intimidated everyone/everything of influence into submission and collaboration.
Ukraine needs to keep Trump and his MAGTARD idiots away from any negotiating !!!... Biden ensured Ukraine had enough to finish Putin off once and for all ...Ukraine holds all the cards and the EU will now help them across the finish line-HIT PUTIN HARD !!!!!😉👍
Before Bush was elected, there was a Canadian comedy special that asked Americans their thoughts on the Canadian Prime Minister Poutine. Many had no idea who the actual Prime Minister was and went along with the statement. 😂
They won’t. They can’t (yet). They’re trauma bonded to America, the narcissist. It will take time and work. The sense of community amongst the leaders will help them make smart decisions and possibly dump the narc Ex.
Could happen to NATO: "No minerals deal,no weapons!“This is what Trump‘s blackmailing looks like!His betrayal of Western value such as standing up for our liberal democracies, mutual support and the UN statute of non-violation of territorial integrity is breathtaking and unprecedented in US-history!
TRUMP, MUSK, MAGAts & THOSE EVIL GREEDY PARASITIC OLIGARCHS WILL DESTROY OUR ECONOMY OUR DEMOCRACY & TRUMP WILL START NUCLEAR WAR AFTER LOOTING THE TREASURY! DENY DEFEND DEPOSE RESIST EVIL VILE DISGUSTING & DANGEROUS CHRISTIAN NATIONALIST NOTZIS!!! TRUMP IS KRASNOV, THE RUSSIAN ASSET!!!
By attacking education, media, art, and satire, Trump isn’t just silencing critics—he’s reshaping reality itself.
A society that doesn’t think critically, doesn’t trust information, doesn’t create freely, and doesn’t laugh at power is a society ripe for authoritarian rule.

It’s pronounced the same as poutine; “Putin” is too close to putain, which, while appropriate for other reasons … you may or may not have learned in class yet.
I'm an adult, self-directed learner, so I listened to a whole podcast on the various way putain is used in France. I'm curious if the pub-dish poutine has anything to do with the literal translation of putain.
Poutine is a Quebecois word for “mess.” It’s maaaaybe a loanword from the English word “pudding” but in some parts that’s fighting words and the evidence is debatable.

Republicans, don’t cower to the traitor Trump. History will judge you not just by what you do, but by what you fail to stand up to. Honor your love and respect for this country—speak out.
What's sad is that you have to translate this - basic global literacy folks - read a headline in one of the three or four major global languages that use roman characters. I'll give anyone a bye on Chines, or Arabic or Japanese. Hell even Russian. But French? Please.
traitor to his country traitor to magas traitor to his family who are going to have to hide out for the rest of their lives when people finally wake up and realize their country is not a free country any longer that’s on him
Seeing as how it's written in French, Drumpf won't be able to read it now that English is the 'official language' of the USA. Of course, Drumpf can barely read English either so....🤷♀️
let everyone stay in their own country and build your country war is completely pointless for the weak what do you want to gain from it nothing it is nothing more than land grabbing at the expense of people be wise for once and ensure peace.
congress MUST stand and walkout on Trump tonight .. !! STAND when he starts to address the nation .. one by one walk out!!! Do not listen to his lies .. SHOW the world that Democracy lives and works…STAND and walk out like the United Nations did when Russian spoke !! They all stood and walked out!
Is Putin actually 'poutine' in French or did the copy on the left just arbitrarily translate fries with gravy and cheese curds as an ironic homonym nickname for that fucking Russian?
Yeah, in French, it’s written as 'Poutine,' so it can sound the same. But it’s quite funny when you’re familiar with that Quebec specialty 🤣🤣.
The irony is that Putin or Poutine (however you want to write it) is far from a funny guy. I’d classify him more on the horror side.
That would create confusion with Donald Trump IMHO.
Anyway, back then in 1999, the Canadian Poutine was not very well known in France thus no one paid attention. Had he been called "Patatine" or "Potatine", we would have noticed.
Hope you're ready to support your elderly relatives when their Social Security and Medicare are gutted. I'm sure you make enough money to take on that responsibility, and none of what's happening in the country could possibly affect you. Brave of you though, to admit here how you wasted your vote.
"Le Point" is a very conservative news magazine. They don't like civil servants, they don't like taxes, they don't like immigration, they don't like islam, they don't like woke, they don't like LGBTQ... In the USA, they would clearly be hard-core republicans.
Yet, even them are telling what it is.
That is kind of the difference between US media and European media.
Also, if you look at how the right wing leader (Jordan Bardella, RN) basically went "Nuh-uh" after Bannon's nazi salute, and cancelled his speech... I mean, hello.
When even the far-right wing goes "nope"...well.
Also, all those yelling "It wasn't a Nazi salute" -- something tells me the leader of the far-right knows how to recognize one. (And ditto for me. I'm German. Trust me, I've seen it too many times in 3 years worth of history lessons on this subject.)
I’m so upset, having other people in other countries think that we’re all a bunch of radical lunatics! I just hope they understand that 99% of America is just mortified!
I’m gonna be honest he didn’t win anyway Leon rigged the election so we’ll never actually know how many people voted for him. No I’m not a conspiracy theorist, it just is what it is.
We laughed at Trump's claims to having the biggest inauguration crowd. This time, it's different. The world is not lauhing it is organising itself around the US, or without it.
Siding with Russia against an ally is a betrayal of our democracy and values. #TaxTheRich #DeportMusk #RemoveTrump #RemoveVance #RemoveMikeJohnson

Hard to believe his cult members don't see it or refuse to believe it. Russia is already hard at work, recruiting those government employees with high enough level clearances to be useful to the Kremlin. I'm sure they're salivating at the prospect of recruiting the NNSA employees who were fired.

"Baturina is referenced in the 87-page report, which was released Wednesday, addressing her payment to Biden’s investment firm in early 2014." while the big buy was VP. #BidenCrimeFamily
First the British called him The Town Idiot on the cover of their papers. Now the French are calling him this, yet the media here is not doing shit to call him out.
Comments
This point
In any case— this is not an exactly Center media outlet— and *they* are calling it out for what it is; very telling.
Then I obviously don’t understand what it is!
You better believe that when they call Trump 'Moscow's man', they don't mean it as a bad thing.
The same goes for 'predators'. Never a bad trait, for right wingers.

I.e they are saying he is Moscow's man.

"IN" -> "INE"
"Lenin" -> "Lénine"

"Vladimir Putin" in French would sound like "Vladimir Whore".

Trump is a Russian asset. Always has been
Putin lived long enough to see Khrushchev’s plan succeed and successfully overthrow the United States government from within
We are now the enemy
