That's what politicians do, especially if they don't like the winner. Yeah of course Macron thinks trump is a petulant man child, but it doesn't make sense to needlessly antagonise people as unstable as trump.
It's like if you're walking down the road and see a crack head, you're not going to flip them off and call them a twat. Because A: they might attack you and B: having a reputation as someone who is easy to get along with is a good thing.
I remember when people used to say that about Vladimir Putin
The difference is that Putin isn't unstable. He's just a dick. Everything he does is deliberate and as such it doesn't make any sense to be nice. He doesn't care and is going to do what he wants regardless.
