French elections: Far-right candidate to withdraw after Nazi cap picture emerges
Rassemblement National candidate Ludivine Daoudi is expected to withdraw from the second round of the parliamentary elections after a photo of her wearing a Nazi cap circulated on social media.
Takes a special kind of French citizen to wear a Nazi cap.
Not that special, unfortunately.
Here in the US they wouldn't even have the shame to drop out.
And a lot of people wouldn’t even care
Unfortunately, far too many people would cheer it on a some sort of "own the libs" "joke"
Exactly right. They might consider it initially, but then they'd realize that they got an increase in support from the MAGA base and they'd lean into it.
Polling bonus for triggering the libs.
It would be a talking point if they were republican
They would be smiling in their official public portrait while wearing it and throwing Heil Hitler arms
I really wish we could start treating Nazis like we used to
at least the candidate had the decency to be ashamed?
i know some
conservativesfascists who would not be bothered by shit like this.It would boost their ratings.
haha, "shame". No, I don't think it is shame. It's just grounds for legal problems
good point.
Make No mistake, every single one of the RN members would gladly wear a Nazi hat and behave as such, if they didn't have to appear reasonable to access power. They are a hateful and violent group. This party has been co-founded in 1972 by a former SS. Their plan for France is not to kick out migrants and reenforce safety, no, no, no. Their plan is to destroy freedom of speech and press, destroy education, destroy the "Rules of law" (L'État de droit), militarize police and racial cleansing.
Its so weird that of all countries to infiltrate and corrupt, the country famous for rioting and executing leadership wouldnt really be high on my priority list
Self reports are going strong lately for european fascists. Hope more follow suit
Is this satire or for real? I can't tell anymore.
They're all Nazis just with different branding.
I didn't know LeMonde has an English version. Nice
I'm honestly surprised she even bothered withdrawing. It's far from the first picture of a RN candidate in Nazi outfits we find. I'm glad but she did, but I'm surprised.
European values are showing again.
They need to get a better image consultant. She's quitting for the very reason she was appealingly to her supporters.
Honestly thought this was a picture of a Mighty Boosh character as I scrolled past. Be better if it was.
That solves that, then, I suppose?
she withdrew from the legislative candidacy today apparently.
