Macron is not liked by the French people, thousands of French in yellow vests have been protesting for months against the unfairness of neoliberal polices of Macron, benefiting the already very wealthy to the detriment of the many. Like here really, neoliberalism capitalism call it what it is, it is not working for the vast majority. People want change.

This woman has a YouTube channel called Secret Sources. She has some strange views. I would take what she says with a pinch of salt.

I like Macron. Of course many citizens won't remember France under General De Gaulle will they ?

Sort out your own house before criticising others maybe.
