In a viral clip from the G7 summit in France on Wednesday, President Trump saved French President Emmanuel Macron’s wife from taking a nasty tumble down some steps.
As she got into place beside President Trump for a photoshoot with all of the world leaders, Brigitte Macron, who was wearing heels, appeared to lose her balance.
She reached out for President Trump, who helped her regain her balance.

Here’s a longer video with a wider angle:
President Trump is a gentleman when it comes down to it, and it’s a very good thing he was there to help steady Brigitte so she didn’t get hurt.
But, X users are taking the opportunity to make some pretty hilarious jokes.
Take a look at some of these responses:
That’s why men don’t wear those things tho (at least not anymore)

This wasn’t the only viral exchange between President Trump and Brigitte Macron during his trip to Europe…
He also got into a handshake battle with the French First Lady upon their meeting.
We covered that in more detail here:

I won't go too far into it, but a handshake battle is not something a man usually does with a woman!
