  1. I’m trying to get an idea of how serious this is, can someone put in US federal government terms, is this like dissolving the Senate and making everyone re-vote their state senators at the same time?

  3. It’s like axing the whole football team mid-season and telling em to earn their positions back. Crazy times we’re in, eh?

  4. **Based Democracy Enjoyer**:

    “It seems my political beliefs aren’t popular right now. Let’s just make the parliament reflect the citizens right now at the cost of my personal political power.”

  5. >  He said the decision was “serious” but showed his “confidence in our democracy, in letting the sovereign people have their say.”

  6. Macron goated for this. Our politicians in the USA would NEVER lol they are chickens.

  7. Basically saying “well if this is what the people want then let’s pause everything and have them vote to see if this is reflected in the vote”

    Ballsy move and honestly mad respect for ensuring that if the tide has shifted that much, that it’s represented in their elected officials.

  10. What’s the political motivation for this timing. Why not wait till after the Olympics

  11. Correct decision for democracy aside, from a strategic point of view what could he be aiming for? Is there a valid opportunity for victory here or does he see something coming that he doesn’t want to be blamed for? (Ie the president that lost in Ukraine for example)

  12. He no longer has the football player Mbappé in Paris, time to say goodbye.
