The RN candidate for the Elysee Marine Le Pen called on Sunday the polemicist Eric Zemmour to join his candidacy, believing that he was not in a position to beat Emmanuel Macron in the presidential election of 2022. “In general, the The transformation from polemicist to presidential candidate has not happened, ”she told the LCI / RTL / LeFigaro grand jury.
He "does not seem very comfortable in this exercise," she added, referring to the rowdy trip of the polemicist to Marseille which ended with an exchange of fingers of honor with a resident.
Eric Zemmour, who could announce his candidacy for the Elysee Palace in the next few days, embarked on the pre-campaign in September "on a promise which was to be able to beat Emmanuel Macron and therefore to bring together more people than me.
This promise, today, clearly, it is not kept ”, she added.

“Yes, of course”, replied Marine Le Pen to the question “do you call Eric Zemmour to join you?
".
“It is now clear that if he is not a candidate I would be in front of Emmanuel Macron in the first round.
Taking into account the fact that in the second I am given at 46%, I think that the national family has the possibility of winning, ”she added, with reference to the last Ifop-Fiducial poll published Sunday in the JDD.
According to her, Eric Zemmour “does not add additional value to our ideas.
So I believe it is time to come together now ”.
In an Ifop / Fiducial poll for Le Journal du dimanche and Sud-Radio, Emmanuel Macron (stable, between 25 and 28%) and Marine Le Pen (between 19 and 20%) would still be in the lead if the presidential election took place on Sunday , while the putative candidate Eric Zemmour loses two to three points in three weeks (between 14 and 15%).
