The problem for Macron is that this is no longer about gas/diesel taxes.

Even students are getting into the act (for some of the most inane and unrelated reasons).

It seems that everyone outside of Paris is just p!ssed off about something. Per David Asman of Fox Biz (a few moments ago), 70% of Frenchmen not rioting support the riots.

70%.

And only 18% support Macron.

There is some worry now about the effect on the EU election. Macron’s Party? I don’t see them getting more than 15-to-16 percent of the vote. Le Pen’s National Front might go past 35-percent (last time in the EU election, they took 25-percent). Whoever is advising Macron....probably needs to be fired.

I wonder if our "idiot class" infesting D.C., understands extrapolation.

This is a more radical reaction to the same thing that got Trump elected here. They perceive what is going on, that the elite are financing a society where on the backs of the very people they seek to marginalize.

Further, they seek to make that marginalization permanent by importing a brown-shirt class to keep them quiet (muslims).

Students. What do they know?
