Speaking of French, I want to at least acknowledge the new French president, Emmanuel Macron. He handily defeated the candidate from a white nationalist part - looks like a 30-point plus trouncing.
The downside, if there is any, is Macron represents in France what we refer to here in the US as 'No Labels'. I'm not a fan.
I do not think this a harbinger of any sort, but it sure beats the alternative.
Vive la France!
