Where’s the person who was running around yesterday claiming that this wouldn’t happen?

So in the past 24 hours
1. SK failed coup
2. Largest health care company CEO assassinated on a public street
3. Frances government dissolves

Why France constituints thought it was a good idea to prevent the president from dissolving the national assembly?

How can this be happening? I was told that dissolving parliament and calling early elections was a brilliant 4d chess move by Macron.

There will be an Ensemble-National Rally coalition or similar agreement within 6 months. Screenshot this. Americans can downvote me all you want for questioning your God-Emperor Macron but any French people in this sub will agree with me and see it coming a mile off.

Not sure how I feel about this.
Not wild at all about the run to the (far) right.
On one hand, that’s not why we voted.
On the other hand, I don’t think Melenchon was ever negotiating in good faith once Barnier was nominated. (And barely when Castets was on.)
Le Pen probably switched in her head because of her trial.
Still, we’re going to have a tough year ahead. The economy is already going to shit and the deficit is getting worse.

What now?
There is no potential election until June, but there’s no possible form of governance in the meantime.
Any of our resident Gauls got a clue what’s next?
