Paris mayor strikes back at Trump for insulting city
The mayor of Paris has a message for President Trump: Don't insult the City of Light.
During a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, Trump made a comment about the iconic city, saying his friend Jim used to be a regular visitor there but he hasn't made a trip in about four or five years because, "Paris is no longer Paris."
Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo responded Friday with a tweet of herself with Mickey and Minnie. Hidalgo tweeted: “To @realDonaldTrump and his friend Jim, in @LaTourEiffel we celebrate the dynamism and the spirit of openness of #Paris with Mickey & Minnie."
In another tweet, Hidalgo posted that American tourist reservations are up 30% in 2017 compared to this time last year. She used the hashtag #Donald&Jim and a heart emoji.
