Macron wins re-election in France — 9 Comments

  1. The author and her editors are purveyors of mediocrity.

    What appears to be happening in France is that the conventional taxa of political life are being reconstituted. This has happened elsewhere in Europe and in Israel as well.

    The common postwar model was that you had one set of parties with with Marxism in their pedigree and affiliated with the labor unions. On the other side, you had an omnibus of their opponents, usually descended from a number of strands – pre-WWi Whig-liberal parties, pre-WWi conservative parties, agrarian parties, and pre-WWii Catholic parties and a co-operative relationship with trade associations and / or Catholic labor unions. In the Anglosphere (and in Israel as well), the Marxism was usually absent or a later infestation.

    Nowadays, the polarity is shaping up to be the nationalist v. social-liberal parties, with the descendants of Marxism evaporating or reduced to an odd minority strand. The social conservative dispensation tends to line up with the nationalists.

  2. the administrative state will not allow us to be self governed, macron was a functionary and an schwab minion, the people must be dissolved and a new one must be elected in their place,
    with trump every obstacle was put in his way, every fraud, every artifice, every path is left open for this gang of pirates, who are casing the country, and looting it blind it’s not unlike the oligarch formation in post soviet republics,

  3. Well the elites in the EU are happy as are joe Bidet and his puppet masters.

    Now if they can only figure out a way to get rid of Hungary’s Orban; that would be a cause for celebration amongst the Euro elites.

    Marine LePen’s comments about withdrawing from NATO is nothing new for France. Recall that France opted out of NATO in 1966 (a decision made by Charles DeGualle) and rejoined NATO in 2009 (under Sarkozy).

  4. they failed at that, despite all of soros and schwab’s efforts, in true alinsky way, the y hope to overwhelm both poland and hungary’s safety nets, that is the secondary purpose of this conflict,

    the beatings will continue, the green vests will rise again, but they know the lesson from canada, they must learn their place,

  5. furthermore is zemmour, had been the chief opponent, he would not be allowed to form a government, he has been a critic of globalism, as well, the socialists were in bad order, so macron was volunteered funding arranged and the gaullist candidate, fillon was found to be in violation of some rule, and sent away, the desire to be ruled, is intoxicating among the credentialed class, no matter how disastrously this last era has proven itself,

  6. Macron is a little boy playing at president.
    LePen is at least a strong nationalist. Her “like” of Putin is ephemeral. Lots of politicos like and then do not like others, so I find it irrelevant.

  7. In choosing globalist Macron, the voters have chosen the continuation of France’s Islamization. It will not end well for them.

  8. This post by Christopher Caldwell made a lot of sense of the French election.

    “Until the President’s enemies stop squabbling, his politics will dominate”

    Macron has just scored what looks like a resounding re-election. But if you dig down, he is beloved of only 40% of his countrymen. The other 60% will not lack for occasions to grumble, as the gilet jaunes did in 2018. It is a moment with the potential to remind us that French politics always looks stable until it goes off the rails.

    This post by Not the Bee was just kind of sad.
