The US has not cornered the market on stupidity.

Anyone supporting elections governed by software and absent a hard paper backup are either ignorant fools...

Global communism is on a roll. The time is coming when they’ll be begging the U.S. to bail their dumb asses out again. Unfortunately, the U.S. no longer has a military capable of doing it. The U.S. will be looking for a military base to name after Pope Frankie in a year or two.

Question is, will the USA’s current crop of Democrats & RINOs nicely step aside (resign) to let the new, harder core, leftists step in.

Or will they play jiggery pokery to hold onto their sinecures?

France’s leftist alliance would raise the top marginal income tax rate to 90% if it were to take over the government...

Bad times coming in France.

French elections are all on paper ballots.

Voting by mail is not allowed in France.

It’s not at all clear how Populists got labeled Far Right.

Populism is the threat to uniparty elites, and it is to stop their erasure that this coalition formed.

Populism is one of those things that opponents to it paint as evil, and those opponents are everywhere — because populism will eliminate their positions. This is why Trump faces the Dems and the GOPe.

The one, single advantage Trump’s populism has over France’s is that the GOPe are about 5% of the party. Not a third of the electorate as is so in France, declaring themselves centrists. Don’t be surprised when they have no trouble doing deals with the leftists in France. And don’t be surprised that Macron keeps his job.

The word “Populist” is used like the word “Fascist”, it describes anything a Communist disagrees with.

“The word “Populist” is used like the word “Fascist”, it describes anything a Communist disagrees with.”

************

The Left is always quick to demonize anything they disagree with. Any challenge to their absolute power is met with an immediate and vicious attack.

The best thing that could happen for France is for Macron to resign.
