Macron forced to walk NYC streets as Trump motorcade blocks traffic

That's because President Donald Trump's motorcade had the street on lockdown. Macron picked up the phone and called Trump to jokingly complain about the gridlock. Macron called the US president when he was blocked by his motorcade. (TikTok) "How are you? Guess what? I'm waiting in the street because everything is closed for you," Macron says on the call.
