@gemlog @kriykat @MusiqueNow Yep, exactly same thing.
Almost to the dot.
Macron wanted to have a Front National prime minister and make fun of his govt for 3 years, so supposedly showing "the good French peasants" that fascists know shit about economy (could hardly be worse than him though).

That was precisely the plan of Hindenburg when he appointed Hitler (because, we won't say it enough, Hitler was NOT elected) as Chancellor.
He was persuaded after 6 months, the economic results of fascist economy will show to German workers that Nazis were a fraud.

We know now how well it worked !
