Emmanuel Macron was elected president of France on Sunday with a business-friendly vision of European integration, defeating Marine Le Pen, a far-right nationalist who threatened to take France out of the European Union, early projections showed.

How did that turn out for Hillary!™?
Adieu, la France!
Oui. Si triste :...(
The native French people have had open borders for so long that the urban globalists and the immigrants brought in by them have essentially voted to abolish France as a self-governing nation.
We’re on the same trajectory.
Have cancelled plans to go to France next year. It will be too risky for Americans.

We’ll see how long it takes before Macaroni is a puppet of the Caliphate.
C’est terrible! I don’t look forward to this train wreck. Or should I say implosion?
French commit mass suicide.
They might as well go ahead and cover all the women they want to keep, let the savages have the rest of the whores and thots, shut down the liquor shops and start obeying the law. Don’t get caught stealing, you’ll loose something. Like the villagers say about the Taliban, at least when they’re in charge, there is law and order.
In twenty years France will be Islamic.
And the Muslims will make the Nazi occupation look like a pic-nic.
I’m not literally weeping but I feel that guy’s pain. The pain all freedom-loving French people are feeling today.
Au revoir France. Bonjour Françaistan!
