BRUSSELS (Rooters) – Marine Le Pen’s far-right party edged just ahead of the centrist alliance of President Emmanuel Macron in exit polls as French voters led what pollsters expected to be a nationalist surge in an EU parliament election on Sunday.

The defeat for the president was narrow amid a sharply increased turnout that was matched across the continent in what Brussels is portraying as a positive sign, in spite of gains for anti-EU groups.

Under the right leadership the French could escape the enviable collapse of their country because they are basically nasty people who will do what is needed to survive. Remember the Green Peace ship they blew up. Get rid. Of the useless turd running the country and it could happen.

Marine is not “far right.”

Very true, that's why I put the "BRUSSELS (Rooters)" disclaimer in front of the lead sentence.

Very few French even know how to be from the "Right".

I favor OANN if I can get the article there, and I often disclaim Fox as “Faux News”.

I have dear friends who are French. The father served in the French military during the north African wars and despises muslims. They hate what macron has done.

Liz Wheeler is better then anyone at Fox with the exception of Maria Bartiromo. Maria is simply the best anchor on TV, cable or broadcast.

Graham is OK, not great but OK.

Emerald Robinson is a real talent.

I’d like to see OAN pick up Greta Van S, Greta was a great interviewer.

Is Candice Owens available?

Lot’s of talent out there.

Fascism was an organic European development which arose in response to communism and which married social conservatism with leftist economics.

Après que Trump ait réussi à sauver l’Amérique, il sauvera peut-être la France.

Yup.

I, and most of my family have finally just recently switched from Fox to OANN. There’s not a lick of difference between Bret Baker, Chris Wallace, Shep Smith and former Speaker, Paul Ryan. Nothing new with Hannity who has been in an endless loop interrupting his guests with the same old “bought and paid for dossier” crap for two years.

The only reason Marine LePen has been able to make such a triumphant re-entry into France’s political system is because France’s current ruler, Emmanuel Macron, has been such a spectacular failure.

Similarly in England, Boris Johnson’s imminent rise to become Britain’s prime minister has resulted from the spectacular failure of Theresa May.

What good is democracy if a country’s voters are too stupid to stop electing bad leaders?

If the results hold up Steve Bannon can take a victory lap.

Je voudrais bien voir cela. Il semble que notre cher président a donné du courage à nos amis européens et australiens.
