The many times Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron awkwardly touched each other

by Staff writer



From frequent handshakes and perks to nuzzling, the latest meeting between French President Emmanuel Macron and President Donald Trump featured one prominent thing — a lot of incredibly awkward touching.


Even during a press conference in the Oval Office, Trump paused his speech just to brush off an alleged bit of dandruff off the French president’s shoulder.


“Mr. President, they’re all saying what a great relationship we have, and they’re actually correct, it’s not fake news. Finally, it’s not fake news,” Trump said in front of the assembled group of reporters, as Macron laughed politely.

“But we do have a very special relationship. In fact, I’ll get that little piece of dandruff off,” the President continued, turning to Macron and wiping an invisible flake on dandruff off his shoulder.

“Just a little piece!” he assured the French president. “We have to make him perfect. He is perfect.”
