Macron is personally unpopular with folks.  He's not really a Leftist, by French standards.

Russian agents have been very successful in influencing more acceptance of right-wing isolationist policies in many Euro countries.  They've been doing it for decades, in preparation for... exactly what we're seeing right now.

Our ring didn't catch it. He was parked on the street and the angle from the camera to the car was obscured. We're checking with neighbors.

Lmfao.

Stop with the nonsensical "Russia, Russia, Russia" bullshit please. It has nothing to do with "Russian agents" and everything to do with said Western European countries failing economic, immigration, and foreign policies. UK, Germany, France, Italy, and Spain have been in decline for decades. That has nothing to do with Russia. Of course people in those countries are going to want change to the status quo and resist the political ruling class/establishment when they realize said class has been f**cking them over for 30+ years blindly and mindlessly following the United States down the apocalyptic neo-liberal world order destructive hellhole like the good little bitchboy lapdog no ballsack sissy followers they are. I have very little respect for any Western European leader. They are all mostly just the United States' bitches. The first one that stands up to the United States and tells us to f**ck off will be the first one I respect. Jacques Chirac was the last one to show any kind of balls when he told that f**cking retard Bush Jr to f**ck off and get bent over Iraq.

Profanity aside, I believe Russia has been pretty influential in European politics over the past decade, and longer, supporting green parties and isolationist parties.  They'd be foolish not to be doing so.

Maybe if I used a lot of profanity, my posts would be more credible?

Lulz.  Haven't seen him for days, but as if on cue, our resident Russian troll-bot appears from nowhere.

Exactly.  Russia is doing things that are self-serving, for obvious reasons.  There's nothing shocking here, there's no revelation.  It's been ongoing for decades and everyone knows it. 

But I do agree that the Euro leaders and Euro people need to stand up for themselves more effectively.  And that includes standing up to both the US, and to Russia and other foreign agents that attempt to influence them.

FWIW, I don't think France as a whole has been in decline for decades.  I've only been going since 2008, but it seems pretty stable to me overall.  They have problems of course, as do we, I don't think they are clearly worsening.  GDP has been growing reasonably well.
