It was completely unthinkable that in a few days the center of Emmanuel Macron could overturn the result of the European elections France but one thing could and should have been done: put some obstacles in the gears of the wheels The Pen. The opening to the republican alliance (Macron + Popular Front of the left) immediately recommended by the President of the Republic after the first round of the political elections corresponds to this objective and has some probability of prevent the achievement of an absolute majority by the Lepenists. If this is the case, there are two possible scenarios: either the Lepenists prepare to form a government of national unity or to give their votes to a technical government even if it is a Mario Draghi it doesn't exist in France.
In both cases the far right will have to forget its original ideas (not just the Francexit, dead and buried for some time, but also the cancellation of the pension reform, the sharp increase in wages and the crackdown on immigrants) and reassure the financial markets who for now don't seem scared by Jordan's possible arrival Bardella in Matignon. In this way the Lepenists would be legitimized to govern, even if not alone, but the archiving of their more populist proposals and their approval to the mainstream has a good chance of deflating their electoral bubble ahead of the 2027 presidential elections, which is exactly Macron's goal, even if he is no longer in the field. Certainly the early dissolution of Parliament decided by the President was a risky move. But before saying that it was senseless, as some idiots do, it would be prudent to wait and take a long look.
