Leaders of the new alliance vowed to "extinguish the flame" of Marine Le Pen's far-right party and make a "total break" from President Emmanuel Macron's anti-worker policies.
It’s incredible, because by the looks of it, Macron’s party seems to be the one that’s reacting the worst to Macron’s own move, the fascists haven’t been caught on the wrong foot, and the real surprise is the leftist coalition that has been pacted in record time after they were at each other’s throats during the European elections, so Macron might actually be the most fatal victim of his own strategy if he doesn’t even make it to the second round.
You seem to be under the impression that Macron is fine with the left winning.
He’s definitely not: he’s been viciously attacking the left for years now, and has just last Sunday accused them of being antisemitic, antirepublican and antiparlentarist.
His Minister of Justice said in an interview that, in case of a duel between the left and the far-right during the election runoffs, he would vote for neither.
His prime minister keeps saying in Interviews that the left represents chaos for the country.

The only scenario where macron totally fails is if the far right ends up winning.
