Since the start of his speeches, Eric Zemmour has used excess. A style that is not unlike that of Donald Trump.

The cover of Eric Zemmour’s latest book, France has not said its last word, is directly inspired by that of Donald Trump. And that’s not their only point in common. Indeed, the two men have built their notoriety thanks to television. Both also share a taste for provocation, on the subject of immigration first. The American billionaire attacked the one from Mexico, while the polemicist makes similar remarks against Muslims.

Surf the anger of the working classes

The two men also attack the press, and have the same vision of the male-female relationship. On both sides of the Atlantic, their words shocked and created controversy.
