give France back a strong presidential mandate, one where the president would act as an arbiter between the people and the state, and one which would give universal suffrage to French people for them to decide the fate of their country.
Now, Macron, who claims to be the political heir
of de Gaulle has completely betrayed the essence of the Fifth Republic.
And rather than to be an arbiter between the state and his people, he's become kind of a prosecutor.
And he's governed for the last several years now, either during COVID times with a very limited Council of Defense, stripping Parliament of its responsibilities, or whenever he couldn't get a majority in Parliament, which has been now
the norm for the last two years since he came back to power, two and a half years now.
He's been governing through his prime minister in government with presidential decree after presidential decree, what we call the 49-3, which basically bypasses the legislative body on any decision, whether it be to form a government or to reform the pension and entitlement
And so the trust has been broken.
The trust has been broken between the president and the political parties, first that he alienated to achieve his political victory, but also the extreme parties, if you can call them extreme at this point, because when you look at the National Front, Marine Le Pen's party, she lost with 35% in 2016.
And now she lost with 46% in 2022.
And so it is widely believed that should he once again dissolve the National Assembly tomorrow, as he seems incapable of forming a new government,
Tomorrow, he will try and name a new prime minister and form a new cabinet.
It would be the sixth one in two years.
Sixth prime minister in two years sounds more like a banana republic than an advanced Western democracy.
Well, let me see if I can get it out in U.S.
media, but certainly I'm happy to share the English version with you, and I'm happy to update you tomorrow as France teeters on the bricks of the end of the Fifth Republic.
