In my estimation, it might be "rise and shine" time for the French Monarchist movement if things go very badly. Promising stability and a return to tradition are very attractive propositions for a tired public.

Is it 6th Republic time? Given how many unstable republics you lot seem to get through, maybe you ought to give that "monarchy" thing a crack again...

Yes, so I've heard. For all Marine's oddities, her father sounds completely batshit insane. Given that her policies are slowly creeping up in popularity (she increased her share of the vote from 33% in 2017 to 43% in 2022), perhaps it might be for the best if she stands aside and lets someone...
