“Fight! nothing is written, nothing is done.” This is the message that Emmanuel Macron sent on Tuesday evening while reviewing his troops for the legislative elections. The Head of State delivered the closing speech at the gathering of candidates for the presidential majority in Aubervilliers, in the Paris region.
“You have only one duty and one responsibility: to go everywhere to convince and mobilize” explained Emmanuel Macron this Tuesday in front of the candidates of the majority for the legislative elections gathered for a day of training in Aubervilliers. “There is no territory lost, no territory gained,” he insisted. Pending the appointment of his Prime Minister, it is therefore the President who poses himself as the leader of the majority. Especially since it is rumored that he personally validated the nominations, constituency by constituency.
“Being interested in your future majority is normal”
A fantasy, explain the members of his close guard like the boss of La République en Marche, which will soon become Renaissance, Stanislas Guerini: “I sometimes hear that he would have validated each line of investiture… I think that we should not not live with these fantasies,” he warned. “On the other hand, that the President of the Republic can be interested in his future majority, sorry, but I think I will be jarring about you if I did not tell you that it is normal. It is the one that will allow him, with his government and his Prime Minister or his Prime Minister, to move forward and to act.
Emmanuel Macron also presented himself as the only one to bring a project of clarity against the far right, synonymous in his eyes with “exclusion”, and with the far left, embodying, according to him, “communitarianism”. The Head of State has also castigated the “third round” that Jean-Luc Mélenchon is seeking to establish. “It doesn’t exist,” he said.
