It had absolutely no place. It was happening. »

“Christmas Le Graët’s jokes could sometimes make you uncomfortable. I was able to tell him: “You are going a little far, President. » I can’t deny that the president made jokes regularly that could make some people who didn’t know him well uncomfortable.
