Emmanuel Macron is sending Trump another baby oak: “We will send him another, it is not a tragedy”

But no need to worry : Macron is planning on sending the president a replacement.
The original oak sapling, which Macron gave to Trump as “a reminder at the White House of these ties that bind us” in April 2018, never had a chance. Less than a week after the two world leaders took a jaunt over to the South Lawn of the White House, where they awkwardly piled dirt on the tree, which had rather obviously already been planted by someone else, it was mysteriously ripped from the ground and placed in quarantine by U.S. Customs.
While Trump has yet to comment on the passing of his own tree, Macron mourned the loss of the “poor thing” in an interview with Switzerland’s RTS network, but stressed that its death was not symbolic. And then, he did the unfathomable: He announced his intention to send Trump, who has already proven himself to be a cruelly absent tree father, another baby oak.
“We will send him another, it is not a tragedy,” Macron told RTS network, as he thinks “the friendship for freedom between our peoples is well worth it.”
