The snap elections decided upon by President Emmanuel Macron after the poor results in the European elections are a major shock for France and causing major turmoil. There are three potential outcomes to these elections none of them are reassuring for French Jews: Victory for the far Right with the Rassemblement National (RN) The victory of a left-wing coalition, the New Popular Front The absence of any stable majority Marine le Pen has wanted to normalize her party since taking it over in 2011, and antisemitism was both an imperative and a very good way to achieve this goal.
