In France, centrist Emmanuel Macron has sounded increasingly hardline on immigration in recent years, while his political nemesis the National Rally Party leader Marine Le Pen has been heavily mixing social welfare policies into her nationalist agenda to attract more mainstream voters.

Marine Le Pen condemned the ZFEs as "no-rights zones" during her presidential campaign for National Rally in 2022, and her Communist counterpart warned of a "social bomb".

As I’ve observed here recently, MAGA-adjacent European leaders like Viktor Orbán, Giorgia Meloni and Marine Le Pen are discreetly backing away from the widening debris field of Trump chaos, not because they have experienced an ideological awakening but because they can see the writing on the wall.

Right-wing populists like Viktor Orbán and Marine Le Pen have begun to back away in embarrassment: Sorry, new phone.

He said he did not want to "discredit all judges" but claimed that the judgement against Le Pen was aimed at "eliminating her from the presidential race" in 2027.
