The French ( scoundrels ) can never be trusted or relied upon when push comes to shove

Any European military plan for the defence of Europe will need to factor in the possibility of the French not turning up ?

Not entirely accurate. The Vichy French did

The first attack by the French occurred in retaliation for the British strike on the French at Mers-el-Kebir on 18th July 1940 but the majority of bombs were dropped short – little damage was caused but the first casualties occurred. However, a major Vichy French air attack on Gibraltar occurred on 24th September, 1940.
It seems neither side did much damage. Mers-el-Kebar is not a place in France or a suburb of Paris.

I'm guessing all the sensible world leaders, still continue to Trump behind his back. None of them take him seriously and merely endure his petulance for as long as is required. They understand it's a fixed term. You can hear the collective sigh of relief, when he exits anywhere.
