Emmanuel Macron is pelted with TOMATOES before being hurried away by security as scuffle breaks out among crowd during public walkabout just days after election victory

A protester has launched tomatoes at Emmanuel Macron during his first election victory walkabout in France.

The reelected president was meeting voters at a market in Cergy, northwest of Paris, when he was targeted.

The En Marche! leader was not directly hit but it sent his security team into a frenzy, shouting 'Projectile!' as they tried to shield the leader.

They opened an umbrella and Macron lifted his hands above his head as they tried to stop the rain of cherry tomatoes landing on him.

The president can be heard saying, 'it's not serious', before he was ushered away by his bodyguards.

Another angle shows the protester launching himself from a table into the crowd, starting a scuffle, before he was detained.

It was the first time Macron took to the streets since Sunday's vote and the visit was only announced by the Elysee Palace this morning.

He chose the region where he received fewer votes than left-wing candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon in the first round in his bid to heal a divided France.

If someone threw a cherry tomato at Biden, it would be considered an assassination attempt by FBI

Security team? I thought he stated he didn’t believe in self defense recently. Oh, duh. Silly me. He has others handle his self defense.

Seems he’s about as popular as our “duly elected” president.

I have only heard rumors that there was some smelly vote counting going on.

If it is true, our media would not report it. Maybe they tossed tomatoes because he is a phony jackazz. The peasants are getting irritated.

You’re supposed to use a big, fat, overripe beefsteak.

France had a choice between Macron and endless Yellow Vest riots versus Le Pen and endless Left Wing riots.
The Left Wingers are more violent, so...

That’s pretty much what I was thinking too. 👍 The scum bags of the world, are not even trying to hide election fraud anymore.

Muslims are %23 of the French population. They vote as a large block (just like the brainless USA ghetto blacks and Harvard faculty).

Nearly all of them (85%) voted for Macron to wet their noodle. It is too late to save France. They have been conquered by the Mohammedans, as predicted.

It’s now just a matter of time (a few years) before Notre Dame cathedral is converted to a mosque. /spit
