"Some excesses make your stomach turn, even in the United States, especially when as did Donald Trump when he speaks ill of a soldier, of the memory of a soldier," Hollande said according to three people present at a meeting yesterday with members of the French Presidential Press Association.
Hollande was referring to Trump's recent comments about Captain Humayun Khan, a US Muslim soldier killed in Iraq in 2004.
In June, the French President said he would consider Trump's election dangerous and it would complicate relationships between Europe and the US.
