Two words that arouse indignation. Part of the crowd present at Eric Zemmour’s meeting at the Trocadéro in Paris, Sunday March 27, chanted “Macron, killer” for several seconds. The far-right candidate, who listed a series of miscellaneous facts to his supporters, did not interrupt the crowd. The footage immediately sparked outrage right and center.

“Letting an adversary be treated as a murderer is dangerous for the Republicreacted the right-wing candidate Valérie Pécresse on Twitter. This is definitely not right! That’s not my France!”

“Someone who doesn’t have the ability to ask the crowd to stop chanting ‘Macron assassin’ is unworthy of political office”, judged Christophe Castaner on BFMTV. The president of the group La République en Marche in the National Assembly affirmed that he was not “not surprised” of Eric Zemmour’s attitude.

“In front, we didn’t hear much”also commented Bertrand de la Chesnaie, campaign director for Eric Zemmour, during a strained microphone. “That we here in a meeting like that, we chant remarks against Macron, that does not shock me. On the other hand, ‘Macron assassin’, of course, that shocks me”he added, according to a franceinfo journalist present on the spot.
