Marine Le Pen is riding high and rising higher:
Far-Right candidate Marine Le Pen has hit a record high in a new poll as France’s former leaders have admitted she could become the country’s president.
The Kantar poll currently has the National Front party leader at 45 percent in a second round contest against conservative candidate Francois Fillon.
Her popularity drops to 42 percent against centrist candidate Emmanuel Macron, who is currently favourite to win.
The figures come as two former prime ministers have said the anti-EU politician could pick up momentum and steal victory in May.
They say a Le Pen victory could come as a result of the worldwide wave anti-establishment resentment that saw Donald Trump elected US President in November. Former conservative prime minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin said: ‘Madame Le Pen could be elected.’
They were saying Donald Trump couldn’t possibly win, right before he swept it.
So what do the leftists do? They use a mole to launch a scandal:
A former aide to the Franch far-right presidential candidate, Marine Le Pen, has made new allegations about fraudulent party financing.
Gael Nofri said that in 2012 the National Front(FN) had recruited him into Ms. Le Pen’s presidential campaign team, using a fictitious European Parliament (EP) contract.
It was apparently a way for the FN to avoid declaring campaign spending.
The FN is already under investigation for alleged misuse of EP funds.
And when that doesn’t work, they clamp down the totalitarianism:
European Union lawmakers “overwhelmingly” voted on Tuesday to lift the EU parliamentary immunity of French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen for tweeting pictures of Islamic State violence.
Le Pen, a member of the European parliament, is under investigation in France for posting three graphic images of IS executions on Twitter in 2015, including the beheading of the United States journalist James Foley. Responding to a request from the French judiciary, the EU lawmakers in the legal affairs committee voted to lift her immunity, EU officials said. The committee’s decision will have to be backed by the whole parliament in a second vote, possibly this week.
Le Pen’s immunity shields her from prosecution; lifting it would permit legal action against her. The offense being considered is “publishing violent images,” which under certain circumstances can carry a penalty of three years in prison and a fine of 75,000 euros ($79,650).
What they are trying to outlaw is presenting mortal salience stimuli, the primary psychological conditioner provoking a conservative shift in political attitude. From here, it is a small step to outlawing the ideology itself, and they will as they get crazier, and K-selection becomes more unavoidable.
As attacks mount around the election, one presidential front runner said France is seeing “a climate near civil war”. Journalists accused of bias. Judges said to be taking orders from the president. The country in a state of “near civil war.”
This isn’t America’s bitter presidential election campaign last year, but France’s in 2017.
The latest comments from conservative Francois Fillon, who has accused the Socialist government of failing to protect candidates, underline the increasingly ugly tone of France’s campaign.
Clashes in the western city of Nantes at the weekend during a demonstration against far-right leader Marine Le Pen and attacks on buses transporting her supporters were “unacceptable,” he said on Monday.
On Sunday evening, he accused the government of “failing to create the conditions for the peaceful exercise of democracy,” accusing it of allowing “a climate of near civil war to develop in the country.”
Seven police officers were injured on Saturday in Nantes including one with serious burns when anarchists and vandals began throwing rocks and firebombs during an anti-Le Pen protest.
This is the start of what would become a civil war, if external forces like the Apocalypse or a pandemic didn’t intervene. r-strategists are becoming more and more unable to meet adversity, that drives them to avoid it ever more aggressively, and as they do they become even more requiring of total capitulation – of everyone and everything to them. They are addicts, addicted to ease and lack of adversity, and as they feed their addiction, they make it worse.
As they feed their addiction, they bring the Apocalypse closer, and that is making K-strategists go ever more K. As K-strategists go more K, they become less able to accede to the rabbits, just as the rabbit’s increasingly neurotic demands are becoming ever more intolerable.
This is the unbalanced nature of the K-shift’s approach. From here, either populations are going to begin to uniformly go K, and the rabbits will be forced to grit their teeth and accept it with little more than wails, or we remain just enough r-selection for the bifurcation to continue, in which case civil war is a real possibility, or the Apocalypse hits, and Darwin returns and decides everything for everyone.
It is still not crystal clear what way it will go.
