Wouldn't the establishment candidate have been a member of either the Republican or Socialist party? I do not see how you can call Macron a member of the establishment except insofar as he is educated and successful.
- mamon 9y agoMacron was working in a Rothschild owned bank, in the president Hollande's administration, and also was a ministry in Socialists government - he's really well connected to the establishment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmanuel_Macron https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmanuel_Macron
- hyperbovine 9y agoRight but my point is that if you preemptively disqualify everybody that held high positions in industry or government, who's left to rule the country? Idiots like Le Pen.
- mamon 9y agoI didn't say that you should "preemptively disqualify" them, just that calling Macron "anti-establishment candidate" is laughable. Government and big corporations are the very definition of establishment.
