The French president's tweet congratulating Trump contained one word that people couldn't help but feel was a very purposeful choice.

Notable political figures from around the world have begun sending congratulatory messages to Donald Trump after he won his second White House term in the 2024 election.

Early Wednesday morning, many world leaders from countries such as Australia, Canada, Israel, and Malaysia expressed their good wishes in the hopes of maintaining civil relations with the U.S. under Trump's leadership when he returns to the White House in January.


One particular social media post congratulating the soon-to-be 47th President made users smirk.

French President Emmanuel Macron penned a thoughtful message on X (formerly Twitter) that included a word many users thought was intentionally shady.

Macron wrote:

"Congratulations, President @realDonaldTrump. Ready to work together as we did for four years."
"With your convictions and mine. With respect and ambition. For more peace and prosperity."


The presumed meaning of the word "convictions" in this context would lean towards a leader's assuredness in a firm-held belief or opinion.

However, some people were tickled by the notion that Macron may have trolled the first sitting or former U.S. President who has been convicted of criminal charges, specifically relating to Trump's 34 felony counts of falsified business records.

Users had a field day running with this.



Since he may or may not have brought it up, some were curious about Macron's criminal history, if any.

Users had notes for Macron's tweet.



Any attempts at levity are, at this point, quite welcome.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
