Another defection for Marine Le Pen. Senator Rassemblement national de Marseille Stéphane Ravier announced his support for Éric Zemmour this Sunday morning.
The bad news was hanging in the face of Marine Le Pen. The only senator of the National Rally (RN), Stéphane Ravier, joins Éric Zemmour because, he said, ” his ideas and convictions are no longer carried by Marine Le Pen, they are by Éric Zemmour “. So he decided to support right now ” the Reconquest candidate in the presidential campaign because to hear him, it is he who now embodies the rally.
This announcement had been expected for several days, Stéphane Ravier had sent signs about his next defection and had long criticized Marine Le Pen, judging that she no longer had ” fighting spirit “. RN spokesman Laurent Jacobelli reacted immediately by denouncing a “ desertion ” and one ” personal choice “. He tried to put it into perspective by saying that it was “ sewn with white thread “.
Dropper departures
Marine Le Pen herself had anticipated on Friday, declaring during a trip to Toulon: “ Ravier, I don’t care. Losing the only RN senator: so what? Zero influence on opinion. »
Nevertheless, Marine Le Pen continues to be subjected to the ordeal of departures in dribs and drabs, which could continue: another parliamentarian, Nicolas Bay, is also in disagreement with the candidate.
