The charge owes nothing to chance.
Three days before the first round, Emmanuel Macron, who sees his polling lead crumble and Marine Le Pen catch up in the polls, sets up even more face-to-face with the contender of the RN to better try to counter it.
In an interview with Le
Parisien
,
the president-candidate tackles the substance of the program.

“Marine Le Pen has a false social program, because she does not finance it”,
begins by launching Emmanuel Macron who wants to warn the popular categories who are about to vote for her.
According to him, the nationalist candidate
“endangers small savers and small pensions the most.”
And to add:
“When she says: “I am going to increase the pensions and sleep good people”, it is not true.
She lies to people because she won't."
While Emmanuel Macron has long wanted to stay above the electoral arena in an overhanging position, he is pursuing a turning point there a few days ago, since his meeting at La Défense Aréna.
Le Pen “would put us in the red”
For Emmanuel Macron, the program of the former boss of the RN
"would put us in the red"
.
For those who faced Marine Le Pen five years ago, the difference is significant.
"The debate has completely trivialized
(her)
speech because she had a formidable campaign manager who was even more outrageous than her: Mr. Zemmour,"
he chides.
Marine Le Pen having deployed a strategy of "trivialization" or even "normalization" for several months, the President of the Republic considers that
"as there have been the worst horrors that have been said for six months, we said to ourselves Marine Le Pen, it's not that bad."
Before using an argument that he had already rolled out in 2017.
“Its fundamentals have not changed: it is a racist program, which aims to split society and is very brutal,”
he affirms to better pose as a bulwark and as a unifier in the face of extremes.
A risky tactic for Emmanuel Macron, who seems taken aback in the face of an opponent who is no longer the same and for whom the polls preside over a second round score of around 47-48%.
