National gathering: the Bardella – Le Pen duo could turn into a duel
(France 2)
Presented as the winning duo of the RN, Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella advance hand in hand. But the rise to power of the young president of the party could reshuffle the cards in view of the next presidential election.
Always three steps behind the queen, like a dolphin. Jordan Bardella and Marine Le Pen like to present themselves as a winning ticket, with a leader. Can the duo become a duel? She proclaims herself a natural candidate despite three unsuccessful attempts, and has already distributed the roles: she president, he prime minister. However, the foal sometimes seems to stand out. At the Agricultural Show, he created an imbroglio by speaking out against “floor prices”, a measure which is on Marine Le Pen’s program.
Bardella “makes the party more accessible”
The party wants to highlight their complementarity. Jordan Bardella would appeal to young people, cities, the wealthiest and those with the most identity, the opposite of Marine Le Pen. But the popularity of the youngest is increasing. Among the activists gathered in Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône), Sunday March 3, the music of competition resonates. “Without him, I think there would be no youth.”, says an activist. “It makes the party more accessible.”, underlines another. The majority, ahead of voting intentions in the European elections, often flatters Jordan Bardella to sour relations with Marine Le Pen.
