Paris hit back at Trump for what it called was an insult to the ‘city of love’.
During a speech on Friday, the American President commented that his friend Jim used to be a regular visitor to Paris, but he hasn’t made a trip in over four years as “Paris is no longer the Paris”.
That did not go well with Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo who tweeted “To @realDonaldTrump and his friend Jim, in @LaTourEiffel we celebrate the dynamism and the spirit of openness of #Paris with Mickey & Minnie."

She added that American tourist reservations in Paris are up 30 percent in 2017, compared to last time this year.
Au 1er semestre 2017, les réservations de touristes américains à #Paris sont en hausse de 30% par rapport à 2016. #Donald&Jim

We're dying to know if Trump apologized.
