. When political leaders heat everyone up, you risk having an end of mandate which could one day resemble that of Trump. After
the censorship by the Constitutional Council of a third of the immigration bill, Xavier Bertrand sounds the charge against the leaders of his party.
Invited on the Franceinfo set on Friday morning, he reacted to the Council's decision, considering that the LR and the French have been
"taken for a ride by the government"
.
Basically, the president of the Hauts-de-France region is in agreement with his party's line, demanding in particular that the government table two texts on immigration before the European elections next June:
"one with the missing measures censored by the Constitutional Council and the other on the reform of State Medical Aid (AME)”.
It is on form that Nicolas Sarkozy's former Minister of Labor strongly opposed the declarations of the feathered leaders of the party, categorically refusing to criticize the Constitutional Council.
While Éric Ciotti and Bruno Retailleau consider that the partial censorship of the bill is a
"democratic hold-up"
and Laurent Wauquiez denounces in Le Parisien this Friday a
"coup d'état of law"
, Xavier Bertrand declared for his part that
“the Constitutional Council should not be the scapegoat”.
He then continued his indictment against the president of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, considering that he had
“a profound disagreement with Laurent Wauquiez on the conception of the Republic, on the conception of the rule of law and on respect for our institutions.
A disagreement which
“will have to be resolved within the LR”.
When politicians are blaming everyone, you risk having an end to the mandate that could one day resemble Trump's.

In the middle of the Republican Party primary in the United States, the president of the micro-party Nous France even denounced the Trumpization of the French political landscape:
“In the difficult times that we are experiencing, very disturbed, we must also keep calm. .
When you are in opposition, when you want to govern, you cannot say anything.
We cannot attack institutions as we do today.
When politicians are blaming everyone, you risk having an end of term that could one day resemble that of Trump
.
Gérald Darmanin's former mentor continued his attacks against the party line.
On the one hand by speaking out in favor of including abortion in the Constitution, unlike the President of the Senate, Gérard Larcher.
But also considering that the head of the party list for the European elections François-Xavier Bellamy did not
“exactly embody his right”
.
While Éric Ciotti has declared on multiple occasions
“to be opposed to any form of primaries”
within the party, the distancing of Xavier Bertrand or David Lisnard could undermine the unity of their political family.
