Marine Le Pen believes in a video posted on social networks on Tuesday that "fear" is "the only argument that remains" for Emmanuel Macron "to try to stay" in power.
"Fear is indeed the only argument left to the current President of the Republic to try to maintain himself at all costs, thus extending a mandate during which our freedoms have suffered greatly"
Marine Le Pen believes in a video posted on social networks on Tuesday that "fear" is "the only argument that remains" for Emmanuel Macron "to try to stay" in power.
Emmanuel Macron "aware of the gloomy prospects evoked, in the eyes of the majority of citizens, by a possible second five-year term, has chosen invective and fear blackmail", affirms the candidate of the National Rally, who must face his opponent in a televised debate on Wednesday.
The Republic needs us as much as we need it.
By bringing your vote to my candidacy, it is for the restoration of republican evidence that you will vote.
Sunday, people of France, we have a date with history.

“Fear as a desperate way to keep you from thinking and choosing”
"Fear is indeed the only argument left to the current President of the Republic to try to maintain himself at all costs, thus extending a mandate during which our freedoms have suffered greatly", adds Marine Le Pen.
"Fear, fear as a paralyzing spring as a desperate way to prevent you from thinking and choosing" in the second round on Sunday, according to the far-right candidate.
Accused by Emmanuel Macron of carrying in his project of in-depth revision of the Constitution a "change of regime", Marine Le Pen presents herself on the contrary as the candidate of "the restoration of republican evidence".
"My candidacy is that of the restoration of the republican consensus, national cohesion, social justice and civil peace", assures Marine Le Pen.

A France in a “democratic state of emergency”
For her, France is "in a state of democratic emergency" after "five years in which the democratic rights of the French have been flouted, from freedom of expression to that of demonstrating".
Marine Le Pen denounces in her adversary "a project of social violence", "in the image" of her five-year term "all in brutality in the face of the needs of the most fragile", "all in arrogance" and "all in powerlessness" in terms of security and immigration.
