England gave us Brexit. We gave the world Trump. In all sincerity, thank you for bucking the trend that bad things come in threes. Champagne toasts all around.

Now all we need to do is wait for the next time France goes on strike. Sometime next week I'm sure.

Well played France. I hope the rest of the world stays away from protectionisim and xenophobia.

I mean, that whole business in Turkey was sort of a bad thing...

A neoliberal might be better than a fascist, but it's still not the progressive politician the world needs to prevent 3 ft of sea level rise

Macron is married to his sexy teacher... he has my vote

Actually, the U.S. election was the fourth that the Russians successfully rigged. Poland, Hungary, UK, US. This has been going on a while.

I see you haven't read his plans...

Not too many folks think he's good. Just better than the wing nut.

Do they involve abandoning the European Union and NATO to the benefit of Russia and her dictator, Vladimir Putin?

The fact that he was the better option is indicative of the shitshow we're in with this far right resurgence.

Well, void vote beat a new record in the 5th republic history with 12%,and abstention came to 30%;65% of Macron voters did it against Le Pen

Not really. Things look bad, but it's just a phase. They come and go.

i put my money on a terrorist attack within the week. Who else has their bets out?
Notasatanworshipper
That makes absolutely no sense.

I'd be surprised if the National Front resorts to terrorism. They still did way better than anyone would have thought a few years ago.
Stonebear69
so, voting for nazis would stop terrorists?
madgodrhinoprime
"nazies"

I can't help but worry, he said they'll have to live with terrorism and that it was an imponderable problem, hope that changes.

It wont

Owning up to facts like adults? They'd better fix that shit.

Well they started it when they attempted to colonize Libya. Oh the joys of terrorism studies and yes it's been that fkn long for France.

If you have time definitely check it out. You may have a couple "oh sht" moments when comparing then to now.

Perhaps he didn't mean not fight terrorism but that it's a sad fact of life these days?

I really hate that when a grown up says something mature, like "This is an ongoing problem we're going to have to deal with", that those 1

yo need to dig deeper. both of the cadidates are bad...
Promethianfire
You're right. Neither was -good-. It was "dissapointing" vs "nationalistic racist nutjob." I'll take "dissapointing" in that scenario.
OctopussSevenTwo
Yet as it was here in the states, one was irredeemably worse. And we let him take charge. They did not. And so there is room to be better.

True about the US.

France is so fucked. They picked a Rothschild banker who wants to import more violent savages. This maybbe the end of France.

Take your fear monger if somewhere else. Rational people don't give a shit about your ignorance.
