French President Emmanuel Macron must not have expected that amidst all the talks on the Iran nuclear deal and trade during his visit to the US, a “little piece of dandruff” on his jacket would also end up making news.

And who else to bring up Macron’s dandruff but US President Donald Trump? During a photo-op session at the White House, Donald Trump was being all chummy with Macron as he told him, “They’re all saying what a great relationship we have, and they’re actually correct. We do have a very special relationship”.

And then suddenly, out of the blue, Trump turned towards Macron and said, “In fact, I’ll get that little piece of dandruff off — we have to make him perfect. He is perfect.” Of course, Trump’s words were duly complimented by his actions as he extended his hand to do the needful.

On Macron’s part, it seems as if he was caught off-guard. After all, you certainly would not be expecting the US president to go after that “little piece of dandruff” when you are on your first state visit to the country. But well, with Donald Trump, you never know what to expect.
