    I watched a video a few days back about this and aviators after the original top gun.

    The Trump effect is not always a negative thing. Macron was always one snap election away from a no confidence vote. But Trump being Trump always buys him extra time.

    It’s like… this jackass or the female Trump (Marine Le Pen)?

      Macaron has a worse effect than LePen.

      He got elected by pretending to be center-left. Even now, people consider that he’s a moderate right. He hires full-on far right extremists that lead a party of nazis, and passes them as moderate. He plays the card of the enlightened centrist to make it seem like the far right is a better alternative than the moderate left.

      He is doing something that Le Pen couldn’t ever do: make the far right look like a reasonable, moderate party, while completely discrediting the left in its entirety.

      Macron is paving the way for something much worse than Trump.

        That sounds like most western liberal politicians. Gavin Newsom, Justin Treadeau, Angela Merkel, David Cameron, etc.
