Her father might have been economically right wing but Marine is very economically left with the State having major say.

Ahh, as 'socialist and cuckold' could also refer to Jeremy Corbyn and Tim Farron over here. I was going to say we also have Queen Cersei and literally Eddie Hitler too (Little Jimmy Krankee doesn't count as only the Jocks can vote for that shit heap)
 
As someone else said France was San Francisco as a country before it even existed. Most people will be wondering why the news is covering attacks against immigrants, but they don't seem to report on the neighbourhoods everyone tells women never to go to. Or the large groups of brown people who have set up mini camps in parks and streets.

It's almost looking like 600 AD all over again.

You know, do many people outside of France even know Macron's policies? Other than 'he's not that fascist Le Pen' I've heard very little talk about his actual political ambitions. I gave them a read, he he's very much conservative: he's for free markets and has a lot of nationalist policies.

All I know about Macron is that he's married to a geriatric child molester and that's not a good basis for a government
 
all I know is that all politicians are right wing these days unless you go to the Nordic countries and even there some of them are

She was right-wing even for American standards, she was a cryptofascist by European standards.

She lost because her political party was a fringe group founded by a Holocaust denier, had no real policy ideas besides "fuk muslims tbh", and was BTFO during the debates when this gif was circulated amongst French social media circles that made her look literally retarded.

Not many people INSIDE France know them and act all surprised when they hear him say "I'm gonna do X".

Political programs here are like EULAs : nobody reads them before clicking on "I accept".
 
not strictly related but look at this guy

Among [Macron's parliamentary candidates] that raised approving eyebrows was Cédric Villani, a 43-year-old winner of the Field Medal, also known as “the Nobel Prize of mathematics”.

In a country where mathematicians can attain celebrity status, Villani, with his idiosyncratic lavallière -- or ascot tie -- is a star of sorts and his nomination was quickly heralded on Twitter.

“Macron's party is fielding mathematician Cédric Villani, a past winner of the Fields medal, as a parliamentary candidate. Wowser,” tweeted the Economist’s Stanley Pignal.
