Trump's creepiest moment yet
It seems Donald Trump can hardly go anywhere without creating an awkward moment, and his latest has been directed at France’s new First Lady Brigitte Macron.
The US president and his wife Melania had just finished a museum tour of Les Invalides with the Macrons, and were saying their parting farewells when Donald approached Brigitte.
Looking her up and down, he tells the 63-year-old former teacher that she’s “in such good shape” before turning to her husband and repeating “she’s in such good physical shape… beautiful”.
It really makes for some quite uncomfortable viewing, and calls to mind something else Donald has previously said.
“I'm automatically attracted to beautiful [women]. I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. I just kiss, I don't even wait,” he is heard telling Billy Bush on that infamous tape.
“And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything — grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”
#Trump telling France's First Lady "you're in such good shape" epitomizes men towing the line between compliment & sexual harassment. 1/

The just moments before he made those comments, President Trump was seen giving Brigitte a double kiss on the cheek before taking hold of her hand and shaking it awkwardly
The whole scene was captured as part of a live stream of the Trumps’ visit which comes just before France’s Bastille Day celebrations on Friday.

Of course Mr Macron could have made a similar comment about Donald to Melania, who at 71, is 24 years his third wife's senior - the same age difference between Brigitte and the French President.
