Coalition Negotiations

All the different forces are jockeying for power in the National Assembly.

 

Who will govern? In a solo episode, Marlon breaks down the newspapers and the rumors.

 

There's the New Popular Front, with LFI trying to impose, but with the Communist party scheming with the centrists, reveals a leaked recording.

 

There's Xavier Bertrand, an LR heavyweight who was almost Macron's Prime Minister in 2017, who's calling for an LR Prime Minister. Reliable sources say he wants it. Marlon may talk with Bertrand tomorrow to confirm.

 

And there's the center, led by a rising Attal, who's playing the game, trying to box LFI out and suture a presidential majority together.
