He believes that the majority hate racism more than him, it’s a close run thing as he’s been a right cunt as far as the far left and anybody fucked over by his reforms has been concerned.
He wants a fresh mandate to continue fucking over the electorate, that’s his goal here and he thinks he can play chicken with fascists to get it, especially when fascists will promise any old shit that they have no intention of delivering.
By voting for a centrist government around him you are renewing his mandate to reform France. The french don’t fuck around with protests and he’s had no end of riots and strikes over his reforms so far. The president is not God, he needs parliament to back him against this.
This is about strengthening his hold to force these reforms through. Hence why he called an election now, that he personally is not at risk from, it’s low risk gamble for him personally.
Couple that with him having close to zero chance of getting back in 27 as he’s an unpopular cunt as there ever was, this is his last roll of the dice to enact the widespread change he wants.
He can’t push through his reforms without support from parliament and the people, this his cack handed way of trying to get that. The president is not a god who can just do whatever he wants here, the french have repeatedly shown what will happen if he does try.
He’s trying to get the people to fall in line behind him using the boogyman of Le Penn’s mob so he can finish his reforms, it’s way he’s still doing regular press about this election despite him not being directly involved and him actually having a negative drag on the perception of the centre.

But his mandate doesn’t come to an end until 2027…

He couldn’t get back in 27, he’s at 2 consecutive terms right now. Unless they change the laws…
Nazis at the gates is the perfect excuse for him to do so, but irrelevant as he’d never get in even with a rule change as he’s that detested
Yeah this is a part that I really don’t understand tbh
