I trust the French to cleanse itself as efficiently as it always does when an Alt-Right Group is involved, Wish the UK was as good.

Caveat that this is basically the percent NR has gotten in presidential runoffs before, and they may not have much of a margin above this in the runoffs

So, riots in France by September when the far right does what only ever does. Massive incompetence and corruption.

Question for you: is le Pen the isolationist type of conservative, or one that will look to expand the African chasse gardée?

Why does he write this? Better to concentrate on patterns, rather than events.

It means the far right steamrolls while everyone left of them watches stone faced. Trump looks inevitable now too. The whole world's going far right. What's one to do? Panic?

Both estimates project that far-right will dominate the upcoming National Assembly — falling short so far of absolute majority, but not unattainable next week. Left bloc projected 2nd. Macron's bloc, to collapse < 100 seats. NOTE: This is projections of what'd happen NEXT WEEK.

"Lemme call a snap election while I'm up." I don't know why people keep giving credence to the "centrists are the grownups in the room" line. They're so bad at politics.
