monica_barona No surprise! Populists are rising every where, Hillary called us Deplorables and the LSM thought it was funny. Not so funny now. Started with Brexit, won't end with France. Now yellow jackets are coming to Canada, as rallies are announced. ♠️

France trying to silence its people,that never ends well.

Paris the city of love and lights! Macron (socialist) sure made a mess of it! Just lost money on a trip planned to go beginning of the year! I will not spend a dime for socialism!

估计事情要升级,解决唯一的途径马克龙快下台,换人,否则没完

Only $624 for round trip tickets to Paris

just a French bundle
