France’s far right National Front sent shock waves through Europe tonight after leader Marine Le Pen made it into the second round of nation’s presidential elections, according to exit polls.

The hard-line anti-immigration candidate stormed into the final ballot to face centrist independent Emmanuel Macron.

The “privilege” that is awarded to those we cannot prosecute... because our justice department has been compromised by the very ones who need to be brought to justice. Not only the justice dept... but congress won’t do it either. obama and hillary knew what to do to protect themselves from prosecution... and congress closed eyes through it all.

Justice is blind?... as a bat! there is no justice for most. And I’d count comey in that bunch of trying to destroy our President... along with lynch, brennan and clapper. They know everything because it’s their business.. and they knew who was telling the lies and who was spying on Trump.. they know! and they are part of those who are trying to destroying our President. They KNOW who obama is and what he’s done.. they KNOW it now and still are letting him off.. because he was a President.. and because they worshiped him for the lying treasonous person he was.. it makes their own deeds not as bad... obama is not finished either... he has the means to do anything he wants... and he wants to destroy anyone who stands between him and his legacy!

So we are supposed to let it go.. I don’t think we will ever let it go.. it will go down in history as the most corrupt years in our government.. and corrupt due to the fact they were allowed to do it! Show me in our constitution where they can do this just because they are “too important to indict”.. it’s not there. Congress... the persons we sent there to represent us... they are not worthy of sitting in that seat... and I pray Trump gets term limits on the ballot somehow.. and that will be the best pay off we could ask for! It would change history! It will tell Washington that their fortune banks are closed.. GO HOME!

BS, this guy is a Communist who Obama tacitly endorsed.

Yep, he is just the fool (and the tool) to administer the coup de grace to one of the world’s greatest countries. NATIONAL SUICIDE, and the first of many European nations destined for servitude under the despotism of the Caliphate.

Because all of the non-FN parties will endorse her opponent, same as when her father got into a run-off only to be badly crushed in the final. She will do better than her father, because she’s a better politician and because of all the imported Muslim slaughter lately, but I don’t see how the numbers will work out for her.

I would love to be proven wrong.

Also, I don’t know why Trump has not taken a more thorough path through this. He still needs to weed out the enemy and force congress to get on the proverbial fast stick!

Thanks for providing this info. You obviously have a better understanding of the political situation there than I do.

Being a patriot and wanting to keep the dregs, diseases, and criminals of the turd world out of a civilized country is the new definition of “far right.”

It’s very sad. European self-destruction and self-loathing have eaten their foundation away. They believe in nothing, so they cannot defend anything any longer.

Never underestimate the cultural marxism of the average European. If they choose this Macron, they deserve their fate. I will say that there may be room for faint hope. Given the leftist hand-wringing about deportations and closed borders in many European countries, some of this may be PC mouthing and nothing more. Even ultra-liberal Sweden is deporting 75% of it’s “refugees.”

Disgusting!! She has THREE children his age, or close to his age.

He said his 63 year old wife WILL have a place in his government, because “she made me what I am”.

Barf!!

I forgot to add that my above poetic creation is based on "You'll Find Me At Maxim's", a delightful song from my all-time favorite operetta, "The Merry Widow", set in turn-of-the-century Paris.

It was written in 1905 with music by Franz Lehar and lyrics by MinuteGal.

(oooh la la !)
