So the problem for Macron isn't that his party didn't win, it's that the left won, and now his party should be working with them... and like the rest of his ilk just loathes the idea.

If Rennassiance/Ensemble wanted to ally with the far right, why would they collaborate with the NFP to pull nearly 1/3rd of their candidates from the 2nd round of voting for the purpose of preventing the RN from getting more seats?
