FOR C. ESTROSI, E. MACRON “DID THE JOB FOR FIVE YEARS”
“Today, what can we blame Emmanuel Macron? We have a president who has done the job for five years”, assured the former member of LR and mayor of Nice Christian Estrosi on CNEWS.
The one who joined Edouard Philippe and the Horizons party estimated that his “former political family was the subject of hateful behavior and remarks that they had not even had at the time of François Hollande’s presidency”. “Emmanuel Macron made right-wing reforms that even the right had not made,” he said. “I don’t know what the president’s schedule will be and even if he will really be a candidate, but I always said that I would support him if he is a candidate,” he added.
The LR party “is not my political family”, he insisted: “I left it in May, when it called, by its leaders, to vote for the National Front against Renaud Muselier and myself in my region, she strayed from the right path which was our heritage “.
He assured that he had never considered an alliance with the RN, “my enemy since day one, with an impassable line, which some today have crossed”. “The dike blew up”, he hammered, aiming in particular Eric Ciotti and his proximity to Eric Zemmour, although he supports Valérie Pécresse.
As for Valérie Pécresse’s breakthrough in recent polls, “I just think that, as Valérie Pécresse herself said, polls are going, they are coming, it’s like the tail of the dog (…) C ‘ is a snapshot of a moment when the French care little about the presidential elections, “he said.
