POLICY – Fire everything. This Tuesday, January 21, the day after the inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States, the Renew group in the European Parliament (bringing together Renaissance elected officials and their liberal partners) reacted with humor to the offensive speech given by the billionaire at his return to the White House.
A reaction through a photomontage diverting one of the most commented upon moments of the ceremony: Donald Trump’s failed kiss to his wife Melania. The American president found himself unable to kiss his wife because of the imposing hat worn by her.
A funny scene that many interpreted as a way for the first lady to protect herself from her husband. Which is, clearly, the case of the group chaired by Valérie Hayer. “ We all need to take precautions », We can read in the caption of the montage, showing a Europe beyond the reach of the billionaire’s embrace because it wears the same headgear.

-In the tweet accompanying the image, the liberals consider that “ Europe must prepare for a new era ”, which goes through a “ strategic autonomy » for the Old Continent (or rather a “ strategic hat » if we translate the play on words written in English by Renew). This is precisely what the Renew elected representatives in Strasbourg and Brussels are demanding, who are pleading, in the wake of Emmanuel Macron, for reinforced European sovereignty at a time when Uncle Sam seems ready to disengage from the security of many countries in the EU and inclined to open a fierce trade war.
Hence the desire at Renew to hammer home the message of necessary protection in the face of the voracity of the new American administration, at a time when the global extreme right dreams of reproducing in Europe what is happening across the Atlantic. “ Yesterday said a lot about Donald Trump’s vision for the United States. A reactionary, radical and brutal President. Europe is the best answer to protect your interests, Europeans », summarized Valérie Hayer.
