It's actually lower than hollande, although admittedly hollande probably needed a bit more makeup work. the clickbaity headline going around is 'macron pays €26,000 on makeup' as though he's buying €10k bottles of eyeliner instead of paying the contractor who's job it is to apply the makeup you need to not look like poo poo on tv e: Macron in the second sentence, not Hollande Fallen Hamprince fucked around with this message at 15:23 on Aug 25, 2017 |

It's for three months. For comparison, Sarko spent ~8,000 a month, hollande ~10,000. tv makeup work is expensive.

Bigger sense of entitlement than Clinton, I couldn't say, but a thinner skin than Trump? Hell no. And I say this as someone who doesn't like Macron. Him and his people are just using the same rhetoric as all his predecessors did when their approval rating went to poo poo. It's worth making fun of because of all the "he's revolutionizing French politics! Leader of the Free World!" nonsense from a bunch of people after the election, but nothing more. He's not lashing out at people over Twitter.

When was the last time the French people actually liked their president? Like has any president polled higher than 65% since... Napoleon? I couldn't easily figure this out in 5 minutes of Googling re: Mitterand or whoever's popularity. It looks like Pompidou also got down to 5% approval, de Gaulle to 30%, and Chirac to 12%, so hating the president's guts seems to be like business as usual. Jesus Christ would probably only get like 45% approval ratings even if he was handing out mana and curing all ailments. I mean, Macron might be a lovely president, but can you really tell anything at all from the opinion polls? VVV: thanks! I was surprised not to find a wiki about it like the US has.

Nicolas Sarkozy went down to 28% in his first (and only) 5 years and people hated him. Jacques Chirac went down to 27% after 10+ years but it wasn't as hateful. He was just a super thief. But no one ever went down as fast as Macron. And it's 100 days of mostly vacation time. After the same period Hollande was at 54% and he went far far lower. Sarko was up by 4% Also Pompidou got the "his wife is into orgies we have photos(obviously fake ones)" scandal phase. That was fun as hell. Then he died of his super secret sickness. edit: appropriate music edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7cjdPleMak Toplowtech fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Aug 29, 2017 |

Is Macron so hated because people mostly voted for him to oppose Le Pen and his campaign was a sort of giant tent that encompassed everyone who was anti-fascist? Is it because he lied about everything? A combination? Some other reason? Also, has anything he's proposed or suggested been popular at all?

My mom thinks he's a gently caress-up because he was literally not in the public eye at all basically until he became President of the republic, which is a pretty loving major step to take in one go. She thinks as long as he surrounds himself with intelligent people he'll end up being fine, and she's willing to forgive him saying the wrong thing until about Christmas while he gets used to being the biggest political figure in France after basically being a nobody. I personally think people just voted for him to oppose LePen, I mean, your choice was literally Nazis, or some other dude who's still very right wing and he's not going to get better.

I'm honestly considering leaving FO to join SUD or the CGT (there's no CNT branch at Customs for some reason) over this. I mean, I knew FO was not the best union, I joined them out of familiarity with the people there, but gently caress that poo poo, if Mailly isn't willing to fight against this bullshit, he can kiss my rear end goodbye.
