Donald Trump journeyed to Paris to attend the reopening of the Notre Dame Cathedral this weekend after it was nearly totally destroyed by fire in 2019, and evidently, our official acting U.S. president -- Joe Biden -- was too busy doing whatever it is he’s been doing lately to attend because he could only send his wife Jill for the epic ceremonies.

Trump is now talking about some of his interactions with world leaders who were there, and there’s some fascinating stuff:

President-elect Donald Trump said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is ready for “peace” as he dished on his meetings with world leaders — and Jill Biden — during his trip to Paris for the reopening of Notre Dame.

The incoming president revealed Sunday details of his conversations with world leaders on his first trip abroad since winning a second term, including a trilateral meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and Zelensky.

“He wants to make peace,” Trump told The Post in a phone interview. “That’s new.

“He wants to have a ceasefire,” he added. “He wants to make peace. We didn’t talk about the details. He thinks it’s time, and Putin should think its time because he’s lost — when you lose 700,000 people, it’s time. It’s not going to end until there’s a peace.”

If true, that would be a huge development. Perhaps Zelensky realizes that the endless Joe Biden money train is about to come to a stop.

Meanwhile, the internet was lit on fire by Trump’s interaction with First Lady Jill Biden, as RedState’s Bonchie reported.

Despite all the "Hitlerian" rhetoric on the campaign trail, Trump said things between the two were actually quite friendly:

The side chat inside the cathedral with first lady Jill Biden was also a positive interaction, Trump said, despite their long history of making nasty remarks about each other during the two election cycles.

“Very nice. She couldn’t have been nicer,” Trump said about their talk.

"It’s politics. You have to get used to it,” he said about their political spats in the past. “She was very nice and we had a very nice conversation.”

Trump, who is known as a combative politician who isn’t afraid to mock his rivals, may be turning a new leaf. He even praised French President Emmanuel Macron, who he has sparred with in the past:

“I said NATO is good as long as they pay their bills, but they gotta pay their bills, because you know, when I got involved with NATO nobody paid, and then they paid after I got involved,” the president elect said.

“He agrees with me,” Trump said of Macron. “He’s a good man, he did a good job. I told him, ‘you have no idea how good a job you did’ on that chapel. That’s very hard to do. Painstaking.”

As the Incredible Shrinking President Joe Biden continues to fade into the woodwork, Donald Trump has clearly taken over as the leader of the United States. My wife and I used to argue back in the day; I would say, “Why does he have to use such bellicose rhetoric?” She would answer that’s what makes him who he is and why he’s able to fight the “New World Order.”

I always understood her point, but I feel that Trump 2.0 is fundamentally different than he was when he first descended the Golden Escalator. He’s lost none of his fight—but he’s recognized the dark forces he’s up against, and he’s ready for it this time. His picks to fill his administration clearly show that.

Put on your fire suit. Gird your loins. 

It's coming, and it can't come fast enough.
