While Marion Maréchal should support Éric Zemmour in the race for the Elysée Palace, Marine Le Pen cannot digest it. A problem within a clan accustomed to family quarrels.
Relations have rarely been simple in the Le Pen family. Marine Le Pen is very touched personally and politically by Marion Maréchal’s support for Éric Zemmour. “A family that is torn apart, even if it is not the first time. We imagine that Marine’s emotion is not feigned. Marion is not on the same political line and has been for a long time. She represented the current of conservative right within the RN, a tendency which one finds today at Éric Zemmour”, explains journalist Jean-Christophe Galeazzi on the 23h set of franceinfo.
If she did not officially join the former polemicist, the granddaughter of Jean-Marie Le Pen made it clear that she would not support her aunt. “This situation could parasitize the RN campaign. The fringe of the National Rally close to Marion Maréchal could be tempted to follow it, especially for the legislative elections which should mark his return to politics”, emphasizes Jean-Christophe Galeazzi. Good news on the other hand for Marine Le Pen who obtained a loan of 10.6 million euros to finance her campaign, contracted with a European bank.
