7. Honestly just need fascists out for next two years while the world deals with Putin's interventions

It seems likely that the next year or two will bring a major world re-evaluation of Putin's foreign propaganda.

We'll also see a reckoning about social media and tech firms and data and privacy, as a result of the use of social media to foment hate and suppress votes in Brexit and in the US 2016 election.

If LePen had won that would have been a disaster. America will get 45 out in the next year or two, or severely weaken him. But May is going nowhere, and LePen in France would have been a major major setback for democracy and freedom worldwide.

Vive la France! Vive la resistance!
