Correction, they are hoping for a Le Pen government. It was the plan all along, they started attacking the left right after they almost got a majority in 2022, medias started promoting the far right like crazy, on all channels, we got literally spammed in May with Bardella getting 3 times the media mentions the others had. We knew back in December Macron was planning the dissolution of Parliament to give power to the far right, we know from off the record leaks from Elysée staff members he's planning to throw the country into flames so he can resign right before 2027 and run for a third mandate, working around the constitution. Right now we can witness all the bourgeoisie and all the medias openly campaigning against the united left and for the fascists, because they want them to win over the left they thought wouldn't have time to unite since Macron deliberately chose the shortest delay to organize the elections.
