That's not cynical, it's realistic.
France has a credible deterrent that is a valuable asset. It should use it to its advantage.
The US never "protected" Europe out of kindness. France should not, either. It's already given up a lot of things in defense and space in the name of "European unity".
This is how it works. It's just that usually the public is fed nice speeches while the real play happens behind closed door, while Trump has been very undiplomatic and "in your face".
