Trump Tweets:' Congratulations' to Macron
President Donald Trump tweeted his congratulations Sunday afternoon to Emmanuel Macron, the newly-elected president of France.
"Congratulations to Emmanuel Macron on his big win today as the next President of France. I look very much forward to working with him!" Trump tweeted.

Macron, a former investment banker, defeated far-right nationalist Marine Le Pen in France's elections on Sunday by around 65 percent to 35 percent at the time polls closed.
Macron, a centrist, will bring a business-friendly vision for France to replace current President Francois Hollande's unpopular Socialist government.
Trump issued tweets prior to the election, but did not endorse either candidate.
