” Catastrophic », « A shipwreck “. Many comments are scathing the day after Valérie Pécresse’s first big meeting, less than two months before the presidential election. 7,000 people gathered at the Zénith de Paris in the hope of finally seeing the campaign of the candidate of the Les Républicains party, who remains stuck in the polls, take off.
Was this meeting a turning point? What line should Valérie Pécresse embody to hope to relaunch her campaign? Does she remain the only alternative to a re-election of Emmanuel Macron?
