The symbolism of this symbolism is pretty symbolic.
100 years ago, American soldiers fought in France, in Belleau to defend our freedom. This oak tree (my gift to @realDonaldTrump) will be a reminder at the White House of these ties that bind us. pic.twitter.com/AUdVncaKRN

The tree, harvested from Belleau Wood, one of the bloodiest battles in World War I for American forces, disappeared from the White House lawn shortly after it was planted.
Gerard Araud, then-French ambassador to the U.S., said the tree had been quarantined, “which is mandatory for any living organism imported into the US.” He said the tree would later be replanted.
But the tree has since died in quarantine, according to French media reports.
The relationship between Trump and Macron has also seen better times. The two leaders disagree over a range of issues, including Iran and commitments to international security.

Maybe We should put Gerard Araud in charge of Our Southern Border 😉
Good thing they quarantined it. It was a sick tree.
Tests revealed a high concentration of urine in the soil. Forensics, using DNA testing, determined that it came from Jim Acosta, Chuck Schumer, Robert Mueller and frighteningly, Nancy Pelosi.

The last great Frenchman was Lafeyette.
Young experienced soldier, effective, good leader. He and his wife were imprisoned in France for a period of time.

He was a HUGE confident of Washington and Jefferson.
