Image from, with caption: President Trump was conspicuously absent from the procession of world leaders in Paris, who had gathered to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War.

Trump's "insulting" visit to Paris -- a visit meant to commemorate the end of WWI -- reminds me of that favorite "All-American" song (just replace "love" with "hate"):
Sam Cooke
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book,
Don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you,
And I know that if you love me, too,
What a wonderful world this would be
Don't know much about geography,
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra,
Don't know what a slide rule is for
But I do know that one and one is two,
And if this one could be with you,
What a wonderful world this would be
Now, I don't claim to be an "A" student,
But I'm tryin' to be
For maybe by being an "A" student, baby,
I can win your love for me
Don't know much about history,
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book,
Don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you,
And I know that if you love me, too,
What a wonderful world this would be
History
Biology
Science book
French I took
But I do know that I love you,
And I know that if you love me, too,
What a wonderful world this would be
Songwriters: Herb Alpert / Lou Adler / Sam Cooke
