Comparing her father and Marina’s political viability is ridiculous.
The savagery of the vengeful Islamic’s bloody attacks on innocent Parisians DID NOT EXIST in her dad’s time in politics.
2002 was another time and another place when Paris was the center of culture and beauty.
Now Paris is nothing but a bloody battlefield.
So, no matter what you and I think about the destruction in France it appears to have only moved about 5% of voters in the last 15 years to consider the only candidate who is plausibly going to address the issue.
The term "pathological altruism" was never more applicable than in the case of France and her misguided refugee and immigration policies. But, most French just do not see it that way, apparently.
You would think, with all that has gone on, she would win on Round 1 with 55% of the vote, at least. But no one doing polls considers that as even a distant possibility.
Instead they will select someone who will continue the policies that are killing them.
It's crazy. It's incredible. But it's also true.
