'You have to get them out': Trump says France's riots are an 'immigration problem', not a school problem

Trump told Fox News Digital on Tuesday that France's unrest is driven by immigration, not student grievances, repeating a decade-long warning to Emmanuel Macron that France risks "losing its country." He said he had raised the issue directly with US Ambassador to France Charles Kushner this week, and insisted people who "hate France, hate the buildings, hate the art" must be expelled. The French foreign ministry's official Response account fought back, listing gains since the romanticised era the White House nostalgically invoked.

The White House posted vintage Paris footage contrasted with riot scenes, warning it was "exactly the future radical Democrats are pushing for America."
