Macron held a news conference in Buenos Aires where he said that there was no cause justified the looting of stores, attacking the security forces, or torching of property. Macron totally fails to comprehend that the violence is building frustration that historically is necessary to mature into a revolution. This is not a political movement. This is economically driven. The police said that violent far-right and far-left groups had infiltrated the yellow vests movement in a desperate effort to call them extremists. These protests began as a backlash against Macron’s fuel tax hikes, but have tapped into a growing resentment that all people get are higher taxes and lower standards of living.
While the protests appear to have caught Macron off-guard despite the fact that his poll rating is now down to 20%, like François Hollande, Macron is unrepenting and unyielding. He said he would not change his policy because of the protests of “thugs”. This only fuels the angry response that he is also out of touch with ordinary people, particularly in rural villages and the provincial hinterlands. There were people with signs reading “Macron, stop treating us like idiots!” Macron is inspiring real hatred as did Hillary Clinton when she called 50% of the country who voted for Trump the “deplorables!”
Macron may call them “thugs” but the “Yellow Vests” have widespread public support, even in cities. The vast majority of French people were fed up with Macron. You can see the anger is escalating more and more throughout France, according to my sources there, and Macron is as unyielding as was Hollande. Some say that Macron had written a book called Revolution. He obviously failed to understand what really makes a revolution – TAXES.

The French are a million miles away from anything resembling a French Revolution. I don’t think they have it in them.
I’d like to read the entire thing but the links aren’t working for mr. is there any reason to have excerpted this?
Thank you.
Some riot police and firefighters showing solidarity. I have hope.
Now you’re actively soliciting subscribers to your blog?
I am always torn to excerpt or not to excerpt as his articles most always include picture, charts, links that add to the writing. Better to visit the site and read the original article(s). The site does not bother you with ads, pop ups or tracking cookies.
You don’t have to click the link or read it but maybe you should.
I have always wanted to read Les Miserables en Francais.
But years back I talked en Anglais to a third year French student at a prestigious NE University who basically said to forget it.
There is no advantage to me posting and linking to his site other than its newsworthiness. Thanks for caring.
How can Macron do the same thing? He is, after all, a globalist, and his country is a member of the EU. He doesn't have the authority to do most of what President Trump did. The French will get their freedom when they recognize their real enemy, Brussels.
Give it time to fester. It will come to a head.
“If they re-build their guillotines let’s ship them our Lefties”
I don’t think we have enough ships.
France is horrible at revolutions.
Macron would first have to admit he is using a wrong model of socialism. Politicians never admit they are wrong.
The only thing Brussels lacks is a Hitler figurehead so they can rule the world.
