    A very important election IMO. April 23 was the first round where independent Emmanuel Macron and far-right Marine Le Pen both won and will move onto the second and final round on May 7 to become president. For the first time, neither of France's two major parties have progressed to the second round.

    Macron won more votes than Le Pen in the first round, but if David Cameron in 2015, Brexit and Trump are any indicators, then Le Pen still has a good chance of winning.

    Macron. Disturbing to see so many Americans support Le Pen who is Anti-American, Pro-Russian and Pro-Iranian.

    Le Pen is twice as worse than Trump because she's an intelligent woman and if she became a president she would know how to put her policy into force. I'm so glad she was defeated by Macron!

    The U.S. died for the world's sins lmao nah but honestly, these far-right candidates are going to have a much more difficult time winning with Trump in office. He's a constant reminder to reject far-right extremism.
