    There are many democratic reforms needed in the EU, but on the bottom line, this institution has brought us peace for many, many years while it kept (european style) freedom for hundreds of million people. That Macron got the next french president is good news - maybe he become the Trudeau of the EU.

    Can French residents educate me as to if the sentiment among his supporters is more 'pro-Macron and his party', or more 'anti-Le Pen and her party'?

    This is a great news, few more years of delusional socialism will open people eyes that this system eventually runs off of other people money. Journalists will not have to travel to Venezuela to get pictures of people on the streets. History will repeat itself again.
