The similarites in terms of psychological and characterial structures between Trump and Macron have been noted before. Biden is making them both look rather foolish.

Thank you Stuart. I am struck by the social-political complaint. " ... nobody is listening to me". Cutting to my real question, who is manipulating who?

Brian, there are two levels to this; firstly, the public anger has building over the last 40 years during which, even when alternating left and right, nobody seems either to be listening and none of those elected keep their promises; secondly, the extreme left is trying desperately and unsuccessfully to get a hold of the movement and make it insurrectionary but they are only serving to necessary "order" perspective of the contested elite in power. The people are fed up with this bunch of mediocre politicians from both sides. It should be remembered that half of the people have stopped voting in disgust and nearly half those remaining actually voted Le Pen.....against Macron
