In a reversal of 2002, Le Pen will crush with 80+% of the vote in the runoff.

Not sure why they didn't simply re-elect Hollande if they wanted more of the same.

It's cool they elected his economy minister who is more or less to blame for the worst stuff.

Sounds like the happy ending that the French deserve, then.

It's like the time in which Hitler lost his first election attempts but this only made him fine tune his strategy for the next time around.

So Macron will appoint Le Pen as Prime Minister or something?

I hope not, he's sort of screwed either way since he's not from one of more traditional parties.

I was thinking more of Hitler being appointed Chancellor by von Hindenburg after losing to him for the Presidency.

Haha, what a piece of poo poo. So he's not Obama, he's Bill Clinton without the charm. Welp. The French left has five years to get its poo poo together, at least.

Nah, Le Pen will get a super majority.
