France finds itself in a in a similar position America did several years ago when Donald Trump was chosen as the person to lead the nation. Le Pen provides a stark contrast to the worldly and erudite Macron who has led France through the pandemic. Le Pen on the the other hand promises to do things like form an alliance with Putin if she wins the election and so the French must thing long an hard what direction they want to see their nation take for the next several years.
