Marine Le Pen’s political future is cloudy for now, but Sunday’s rally in support of her took place under an impeccably sunny spring sky in an upscale neighborhood of central Paris, with temperatures nearing 20 degrees Celsius.
But despite ideal weather, the crowd didn’t show up.
According to organizers of Sunday’s rally, some 5,000 to 8,000 people were expected to attend the event, soberly titled “Save Democracy,” with a fleet of 20 buses and nine mini-buses to bring in more supporters. During his speech, National Rally President Jordan Bardella claimed 10,000 people were present.
Same MO as when they took out kremlin’s candidate in Romania. Because nothing says “save democracy” like a manufactured protest with paid party members and acolytes.
If only Russian bots could show up to protests
Looking ar current scenario it doesn’t seem too far fetched :-(
According to organizers of Sunday’s rally, some 5,000 to 8,000 people were expected to attend the event, soberly titled “Save Democracy,” …
During his speech, National Rally President Jordan Bardella claimed 10,000 people were present. Yet the Place Vauban, … was sparsely filled, and the true attendance figure was likely much lower. …
But for Laurent Jacobelli, a party spokesperson and parliamentarian, the event’s organization was spurred by “a very strong demand from people to voice their doubts about the judgment” in the Le Pen case.
O the very strong demand /s
much like P47 rallies.
Pretty sure Utah had a bigger turnout against him than any of his rallies has ever had.
Didn’t that bitch want to end French democracy and suppress future elections if she won?

Letting corrupt and convicted leaders doesn’t really sound like the better option.

Most of europe’s democracys don’t have an option to elect leaders. We elect political parties, and the french can still vote for the party of Le Pen.
I don’t see a real political issue there, as long as the courts can be trusted.

The party can still be elected. The individual person has been blocked.
What do you mean “favorite”? 🤣

The most likely to win should be able to gather more than ok people 🤣
She’s not the favorite candidate in France.
She herself said, that people who embezzle funds or are convicted of fraud should have their passive voting rights stripped. She just didn’t think it would hit her
The favourite candidate is Macron. Twice! So your innuendo has a false premise.
