Oh no, not Rassemblement National, a party literally founded by ex Nazis.

  I can't find evidence of this. it looks like RN was founded by Jean-Marie Le Pen, who was too young to serve in WWII. He has said a lot of antisemitic things though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marie_Le_Pen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marie_Le_Pen

    You did not look very closely then. The founders list includes : Pierre Bousquet (ex SS division Charlemagne), Emmaneul Allo (judged and condemned nazi collaborator), Léon Gaultier (Waffen-SS) and more (not listing OAS and GUD). All of this is known and documented.

      I only went from Wikipedia. thank you for providing the other founders, I genuinely didn't find them (my fault for presuming it'd be documented on the wiki page.) like, incredibly naive of me in retrospect, but Ctrl+F Gaultier shows nothing on the National Front's wiki article, and Bousquet only shows one hit (where it doesn't mention his SS affiliation at all.) I expected the wiki article to be slanted, but not whitewashed clean of all Nazi ties like it apparently has been.

    Then you didn’t really look into it.
