BUYER’S REMORSE: FRENCH PRESIDENT MACRON’S POPULARITY HITS NEW LOW IN EMBARRASSING POLL Approval rating quickly sinks to one-third Emmanuel Macron’s approval rating has plunged to a new low, with only a little more than one-third of French voters saying they approve of the new French President’s performance, according to a new poll. Mr Macron’s popularity rating slumped by seven percentage points in July to 36 per cent, according to the YouGov poll published today for the Huffington Post France and CNews. Almost half of French voters polled – 49 per cent – said that they “disapprove” of the job he’s doing as president. To add insult to injury, the new president is now slightly less popular than his conservative prime minister, right-winger Edouard Philippe. Of those polled, 37 per cent said Mr Philippe was doing a “good job” as Mr Macron’s right-hand man.

His first major crisis came this week when the head of the French armed forces resigned after a bitter row with Macron over cuts to defence spending. It was an unprecedented standoff which one general blamed on what he called Macron’s “juvenile authoritarianism”.

Le phoney! British liberals love him but in France the gloss is already coming off a President who seems to care more about publicity stunts that saving the economy

Channelling his inner Tom Cruise, 39-year-old Emmanuel Macron strode across the runway at a Marseilles airbase the other day in a set of combat overalls. This was a photo opportunity that the new French president hoped would portray him as an all-action hero. But in place of admiration, the pictures sparked widespread scorn. For a start, his flight-suit was far too tight, revealing more of the presidential anatomy than the citizenry can have expected — or wanted — to see. (dear lord.. who wants to see that Jelly Bean?) Moreover, the stunt reeked of cynical desperation, coming just days after General Pierre de Villiers resigned as chief of the French armed forces following a bitter dispute with Macron over military funding and command responsibilities. Above all, his outfit was seen as highly inappropriate, given that he is the only president of the Fifth Republic without any military experience. Even his inept predecessor, Francois Hollande, did national service.

The Mechanic doesn't know. Since Trump had all these good things to say about Macron, the Mechanic's confused.

Someone tell him what to think, please.
