Well, you need to be pretty to be president, after all.
Poor French.
They didn’t want to elect Marine le Pen because she was an evil Nazi or whatever, but all her opponents were corrupts kleptocrats ensnared in scandal.
So they picked Macron, presumably as a joke.
Well, they’re not laughing anymore. Or maybe they are? I know I am.
CNN:
Emmanuel Macron, who has been president of France for just over 100 days, has been ensnared in yet another controversy after the magazine Le Point reported that he has already racked up a makeup bill of €26,000 ($30,700).
Thirty thousand? How much does makeup even cost?
Is he taking baths in it?
His representatives said the spending was the result of an “emergency” situation, and that future makeup costs would drop significantly.
The makeup is obviously meant for his old granny of a wife, who is widely considered to be the oldest woman still alive.
That’s the only way this figure could even make sense. After all, Macron is young and normal looking, and I doubt he needs any makeup. But his wife…
After all, how do you get from this:
To this:
The answer is: with $30,000 in makeup.
The “emergency situation” in question, which they’re using to justify the absurd spending, is simply that they have to trot out Macron’s wife in the early days of the administration to help pretend that he’s not some weird pervert.
That’s the only explanation that makes any sense of this.
The episode, however, underscores the risks facing Macron, a newcomer to elected office who built a political movement around the promise of remaking France’s economy. A summer of scandals has caused his popularity to tank and jeopardized his reform agenda.
The first major warning signs came in July, when Macron sparred with Prime Minister Édouard Philippe over whether to proceed with tax cuts in the face of a larger-than-expected budget deficit. Macron prevailed, but not without making cuts to public spending.
Macron built a political movement on the fact that he’s not Le Pen, and nothing else.
Now he’s building his legacy on the fact that he’s a goofy fool who’s good at making the nightly news entertaining for the whole family.
I mean, a makeup scandal? Who ever heard of that?
I guess it’s as good a way as any to distract people from the fact that their nation is being turned into an Islamic republic by vicious invaders.
