French presidential election, 2022

You can ban me all you want. You're just showing how intolerant you all are.

Thought this was compucomp for a second.

To get back on topic: If Macron manages to lose this election he has nobody to blame but himself. This would be a spectacular collapse from what looked like a sure thing a month ago.

As somebody who is only somewhat informed about French governmental structure, what would a President Le Pen be able to do without a Parliamentary majority? I know the French President isn't powerless as in most European countries, but much of their power is only possible with the Parliamentary majority that most incoming French Presidents have.

Parliamentary elections always go with the presidential winner in France.

Very par for the course to see so many "leftists" bowing down at the altar of nightmarish neoliberal orthodoxy (as they almost always do, in all Western countries) to vote for Macron

Ik its so based to see leftists getting cucked.

Overall I really do respect Macron for facing reality and campaigning on increasing the pension age before an election.

Wonderful news. Either result is great.
