French President Emmanuel Macron, stuck on a New York City street, calls an individual (implied to be Donald Trump) to inform them he is waiting because the streets are blocked for their motorcade. After the call, he speaks directly with an NYPD officer, explaining he needs to get to the French embassy with his group and attempts to negotiate crossing the street, while the officer apologetically explains that everything is frozen due to the motorcade.
