“Everyone is waiting for a woman in Matignon”, according to Jean-Marc Dumontet, close to Emmanuel Macron

“I think everyone is waiting for a woman at Matignon”declares Saturday May 7 on franceinfo Jean-Marc Dumontet, producer of shows and close to Emmanuel Macron. “There are a lot of men in the political class today”he admits, and it is for this reason that he “really encourages Emmanuel Macron to nominate a woman, because it would be a strong symbol, and it is necessary”.

Jean-Marc Dumontet warned of a political climate “who is not appeased” and “unhealthy” currently in France. “No [des] opponents [d’Emmanuel Macron] did not have the republican greatness of soul to say ‘we wish you for the country, for France, for the French, good luck’says Jean-Marc Dumontet, “It’s still pretty crazy”he adds.

“It translates that your political opponent systematically becomes an enemy. And if we go into this logic, one day it ends up on January 6, one day it ends up at the Capitol”referring to January 6, 2021 in the United States, the day that supporters of Donald Trump invaded the Capitol in Washington, after the defeat of the candidate for the American presidential election. “Today, the caesura is no longer between left and right”according to this close friend of Emmanuel Macron, she is “between people who project themselves into the future” with “optimism”and others who are “unfortunately, in a certain decline”.

Jean-Marc Dumontet “don’t believe at all” the appointment of Jean-Luc Mélenchon as Prime Minister. For him, LFI’s losing presidential candidate “does not have a respectful attitude towards the rule of law”whether towards “the press or justice”. “I tell myself that this gentleman is very authoritarian“, he asserts.
