The presidential candidate denounced Thursday in an interview with Figaro published Thursday the "communitarianism" of Eric Zemmour, around which she believes to find "a series of chapels", "came then left" of the former National Front: "It There are traditionalist Catholics, pagans, and some Nazis. All this does not make a presidential posture".

"I take it with compassion, she has bile and therefore she spits bile", reacted on RTL Gilbert Collard.

"It's still extraordinary to see that Marine Le Pen uses against the Reconquest movement an insult of the type that the National Rally has suffered for years," he lamented.

"I think that when there is no one left at the National Rally, she will end up president of SOS Racisme, it is her destiny now", he laughed.

By joining Eric Zemmour at a meeting on January 22 in Cannes, Mr. Collard had proclaimed from the podium about Marine Le Pen: "I will never say anything against her."

For Marine Le Pen, the poaching by her rival of elected RN, like Gilbert Collard, aims to "kill" the National Rally because "only the death of the RN and the failure of Marine Le Pen can allow him to consider a recomposition phantasmagoria of political space in 2027, 2032 or 2039".

These exchanges of spades launch the duel of meetings on Saturday on the far right: Marine Le Pen is accelerating her campaign in Reims and Éric Zemmour intends to make a new show of force in Lille.
