“To have a right-wing government come to power in France would be a political earthquake,” said Charles A. Kupchan, a professor at Georgetown who was the Europe director of the National Security Council during the Obama administration. “It would send a troubling signal about the overall political health of the Western world.”

They're starting to say the quiet part out loud.

Conservatives can’t win major elections anymore. Vote Fraud on the left and all of that.

Bingo. Honestly, I don’t doubt it. Notice their trying to hit Le Pen with the old Russia sling. Russia, Russia... Now where have we seen that? CIA, FBI, probably NSA too. Obama directly meddled in Israel’s election. You don’t think Obama’s puppet regime isn’t in there working it?

The New York Times is in meltdown.

That’s a great sign of hope.

I'm surprised that Obama hasn't said..."Vote for Macron".

Kinda in the same spirit of Obama telling the UK not to leave the EU.

Macro-le poof likely wins due to SMOTE-B type digital voting algorithms, but I really hope Le Pen somehow pills this off.

Good grief, no bias in this report at all... /s

Well... maybe the press just don’t wanna get it. It’s all about a control of media, PR, sloganisms, and a banel, maddening rhetoric that might be starting to fall short.

I read in a previous post that they use paper ballots, hand counts and very strict ballot security and rules. We should emulate them.

“our democracy” or “Western democracy” are used by leftists to mean globalist autocracy. Here, DEM and GOP are both “our democracy” but MAGA isn’t.

I thought the same thing. The left ‘braces for’ while the right ‘hopes for’.

“I would love to see Le Pen win it, it’s effect on the EU would be equivalent to Brexit. Last chance to save France, I hope they do it.”

I agree.

BTW: I’d rather see nationalism than globalism, as with the latter a handful of big boys call the shots, which doesn’t often inure to the benefit of the little guys. Best that each country decides its own direction, and its own fate.

The Times loves it when the US is a doormat for the world. Trump ended that sh stuff. That's why he needed to be overthrown.
