French President Francois Hollande has strongly criticized U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying some of the things Trump does make him sick.
“Some excesses make your stomach turn, even in the United States, especially when — as did Donald Trump — he speaks ill of a soldier, of the memory of a soldier,” Hollande said according to three people present at a meeting Tuesday with members of the French Presidential Press Association.
Hollande was referring to Trump’s recent comments about captain Humayun Khan, a U.S. Muslim soldier killed in Iraq in 2004.
In June, the French president said he would consider Trump’s election as dangerous and it would complicate relationships between Europe and the United States, in an interview with Les Echos newspaper.

Thank you, President Hollande. You just gave Trump biggest endorsement. I will vote for Trump just to make “your stomach turn”.
France, invincible in peace, invisible in war. Good luck on your pitiful efforts against Islamic terrorism. I don’t think the U.S. will be there to bail you out, as in WW I and II.
If that’s the kind of endorsement you take seriously then what can one say? You cast you vote for POTUS because you think Hollande is stupid/rude to comment on Trump? Maybe your bad stomach will stop you getting to vote on election day?
One needs to realize that for the last eight years, France has been doing the “heavy lifting” in the War on Terrorism, at least compared to the other western countries, whereas the Americans have been turned into “surrender monkeys”, and that the French army includes many Muslim soldiers who are playing a leading role in fight the Islamic terrorists that Clinton and Obama pretend to ignore
Markel from Germany is in deep trouble now her support is down the slopes, I believe next is Hollande the people of France are fed up with their terror stricken country, NOW the u.s. Must not repeat their mistakes!
I guess pc is more important than surviving so keep on going
