Following the snap legislative elections in France on June 30 and July 7, a globalist coalition supporting President Emmanuel Macron has secured the presidency of the National Assembly despite coming second in seats and third in the popular vote. They did so with the help of a rump of supposedly “center-right” lawmakers from Les Républicains (the Republicans), who behave in broadly similar fashion to Republicans-in-name-only (RINOs) in the United States.
Amidst a parliamentary landscape divided chiefly between the far-left New Popular Front (NFP) coalition, the Macronist coalition, and Marine Le Pen’s populist National Rally (RN), Macron’s MPs successfully re-elected Yaël Braun-Pivet as the leader of the National Assembly.
