President Trump is currently in Brussels meeting with NATO allies. Earlier on Wednesday, he made headlines for going after other NATO allies for not reaching their agreed upon goal of 2-percent GDP spending on defense.

Trump and French President Emanuel Macron also joked together earlier in the day after Macron made a statement in French.
“It sounded beautiful. I have no idea what he said. It sounded great,” Trump said despite being unable to understand French, which made everyone laugh. (RELATED: Trump’s Joke To Macron Even Had The Press Corps Laughing)
