The left won elections in France and defeated the far more popular right candidates. How'd they do it? They made a deal with socialists and communists, the FARTHER left parties in France, and colluded to have over 200 candidates drop out of races. Thus, their voters could condense their votes.
So Macron stays in power, but their Parliament looks to be deadlocked.
They get a few more years of out of control immigration and terrible economic policies. Let's see how that works for them.

Honestly, it was quite smart. However, now they have a locked Parliament so when they try to pass things and need the right vote, it could get dicey. Plus, things weren't going well already and they will continue to take the blame.
The most impressive thing is how masterfully they have cucked their voters.

They're going to figure out you have a lot more control over the government with a 2-party system.

The problem is that the people they're in bed with have a pretty "set in stone" agenda.

The little parties will get "Death by Comprimised." Their key platforms will get adopted by the big players, in a "we'll support your pet cause if you throw your support to us."
Happened in the US a while back. Got the 3rd-party-vote-siphoners out of the races, an the two parties that were left raised the barriers to entry very high for new 3rd parties.

France bans "far right" candidate who happened to be ahead in the polls.
Embezzlement is the reason, although I've seen articles written explaining that this is a common practice among French politicians and only she is getting punished. No clue how accurate this is. It comes from the MSM, but they're as biased as anyone else.
They've also banned some of her party mates.

Macron's wife got physical with him over the weekend.
Meh, couples fight, but she shouldn't be swinging. That being said, what's more concerning is their history. A 39 year old going after her 15 year student isn't a red flag for anyone? I cannot help but believe that if the genders were reversed people wouldn't be so quiet about their relationship.

It was for his parents, but didn't end up mattering. They sent him to a boarding school or something for his final year of high school.
It's not me, it's someone else.
