Summary
Donald Trump condemned France’s conviction of far-right leader Marine Le Pen, calling her four-year sentence and five-year political ban a “witch hunt” and likening it to his own legal battles.
Le Pen was found guilty of embezzling EU funds and plans to appeal.
Trump claimed the charges were politically motivated, calling them a “bookkeeping error” and urging France to “FREE MARINE LE PEN!”
He and allies like Elon Musk argue left-wing governments use the legal system to silence opponents. Le Pen’s National Rally party was fined $2 million.

Every accusation is an admission.
I rather legal system than out the window system.
Big mad at functioning countries who can hold criminals accountable.
How is he aware of her bookkeeping?
Was he doing it?
I wouldn’t be surprised.
On behalf of France to Trump:
Va te faire foutre.
Yes Trump we know you love fascism, and that it’s easier to establish fascist systems when laws are set aside.
Now would you kindly fuck off, and preferably go shoot yourself.BOYCOTT USA NOW!!
Uh, le fuck off.
French here. Donald, take care of your burning house before you step in ours.
He so goddamn embarrassing.
He keeps calling on France to do stuff when France is the country least likely to do said stuff.
Hopefully France does not.
Hopefully France cannot. The legal system should be independent to not be even able to cave to political pressure like this.
