France’s far-right looked ready to take control of the National Assembly after the first round of snap elections. But when the dust settled after the second round, the left and center had held.
Though French progressives are celebrating for now, the right-wing National Rally party still took more parliament seats than it’s ever held before.

You couldn't handle the sheer numbers of people from third world non Christian countries flooding in that will force in Communism.
Really the far right was not really staved off. I mean yes it was but they had to cheat and combine both parties the whole system that they have over there isn’t a good system because it allows things like this to happen. Reality is Francis falling apart. It’s getting worse there every day and this is some kind of great victory. Yeah I know it’s so great. There’s graffiti everywhere. There’s destroyed windows and buildings and people are getting injured and killed. Yeah that’s a good thing you know and it’s a great thing when you got a culture that’s allowed to be run by their extreme Voices, which is Islam. It is a religion that was absolutely born out of a military reason necessity therefore it’s pretty simple if you know about it like I do who is studied it it’s a very violent and very forceful religion. Christianity doesn’t even come close and so please don’t be foolish to try to make that argument because that would be really ridiculous. Not to mention that if you haven’t noticed people want to go back to tradition, and to be proud of their culture, their heritage every culture every single one has flaws has made mistakes has done terrible things in their history. In addition to that, every culture has done some really messed up terrible things sometimes they’ve done it to people just like them, but maybe from different tribes or a different group sometimes they’ve done it to people that might be from a different ethnic group, but they still done it. Every culture has, and on top of that slavery still exists in parts of the world like Asia and Africa, and even in the Americas in certain places, but you don’t hear too much about that and the fact they’re the ones that invented it wasn’t the Europeans. Point I’m trying to make is that there has to be some sanity and logic sometimes life is hard and that happens for everybody. In fact you could say it’s always hard but sometimes it gets even harder. Sometimes you have to deal with things that are uncomfortable are difficult and it’s part of life, this craziness that you people have on the left is an illness and since you can’t stand up to scrutiny with any of your ideology because it always falls on itself, I wouldn’t be celebrating. It’s not far right that’s a bunch of BS. It’s more spin. These people want their country back. They have every right to have it back. It is their country. It is not Islam. It is not anything but France and if you think you’re gonna have there that won’t ever happen, because the world won’t allow it. Rightfully so just like in the past the left always gets crushed because you know why when it comes down to it you’re hedonistic you have no morals you think that everything is OK and eventually, you guys get out of control and you eat yourselves you can see that going on all over the place and if you haven’t noticed Europe is going back to the rightand that will continue and there’s nothing that’s gonna stop that will emerge stronger than it has been. Let’s see who’s laughing in about six months or so.
"Remember: Standing as a conservative is a crime, but rioting as a liberal is completely fine."
Oh Hooray! Yeah, cause it's All been going SO Well for France as of late!
Pullling out candidates to impact the results of an election is akin to gerrymandering
Its a good thing all these extra votes we had laying around 'turned up.'
Anyways, I've got cooler of camera equipment to carry…
