A French European parliament member has quipped that the US should return the Statue of Liberty, which it received as a gift from France about 140 years ago, after Donald Trump's decision "to side with the tyrants" against Ukraine.

"Glucksmann, of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats, kicked off the exchange Sunday when " evidently with his tongue in his cheek " he said it appeared to him that the US had come to "despise" the statue as well as what it symbolizes.
"So, it will be just fine here at home," Glucksmann said.'
Why not give her back? It's not like we are concerned about freedom and liberty in this country, or anywhere else, since the Lyin' King became every Trumper's Big Bad Daddy.
Easy way would be to offer Musk a Gov Contract to ship her back home where she's wanted... then it would happen.

We'll have to think of a name for the new golden statue of Trump since "Statue of Liberty" is out of the question now.

I'm sure France regrets saving America during the Revolutionary War.

"Lady Liberty" is pretty DEI anyway. Needs a white hood on it's head to be politically correct.

"I'm beginning to regret saving France in the world wars." you now claiming to have participated in the Normandy invasion What?? What I do know about the brave men who actually did though is that they would be disgusted by Americans kissing Potin's ass as Republicans are these days. I wonder if they have consciences? They throw hateful words around as if they fought the Nazis instead of now welcoming them into the GQP?!?

I am perfectly fine giving back this transexual statute that the liberals have used as an excuse to flood the nation with 3rd worlders with the intention of destroying our social welfare programs. It has been the equivalent of a French Trojan Horse.

It has to do with the intrensic value of human worth.
So, not exactly a Republican Party platform plank.

#15 Right, since the Democrats hate this country they by extension hate Americans which is why they are all for flooding us with illegal jail birds.

"this transexual statute that the liberals have used as an excuse to flood the nation with 3rd worlders with the intention of destroying our social welfare programs. "
It's not a "liberal" statue. And it's not a liberal excuse. In case you were unaware the statue does not make law. And how do you know it's a transsexual statue? Did you crawl under her robes and check? What is wrong with you people and your sicko obsession with the trans community?
And the only reason that "3rd worlders" can be "flooding our nation" (if that is really true) is because Congress is not doing its job and passing a reasonable immigration reform bill.
And since Republicans control all three branches of say it's a republican maga maroon problem now. And good luck trying to solve it by extra legal means.

"since the Democrats hate this country"
Democrats did not attack the U.S. Capitol and kill capitol police and crap on the walls of Americas most sacred institution.
GFY traitor.

Sure that's exactly what "they" are for.
Just more made up maga maroon hateful nonsense. I know of no democrat who has ever advocated for "flooding us with illegal jail birds".

Is that why you're cheering on Musk/Trump gutting the federal institutions, firing thousands upon thousands of American workers and eliminating programs millions of Americans depend on for survival?
---- off with your bullshht, stupid.
which is why they are all for flooding us with illegal jail birds. #16 | POSTED BY FISHPAWN
Way to button your statement with a conspiracy theory.
You really are a braindead republican moron.

When you become concerned about a lying criminal traitor President, perhaps someone will take your concerns seriously.

Do you know why all of the boulevards in Paris are lined with trees?
So the Germans can march in the shade.

We don't deserve the Statue of Liberty at this moment.
If we are lucky, it will be just for this moment.
But I suspect that people like you will make us go through some things.
