They have a number of things they want to try. The SAVE act, the MEGA act (some measures may cause many married women to be unable to vote while others would kill postal voting).

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

This was not an inevitability.
This is the result of decades of political choices that rig the system in favor of the wealthy and powerful while leaving workers behind.
It does not have to be this way.

Polls say the far-right would win the second round handsomely.
Parts of the centre right are now happy to work with Rassemblement National and this could lead to a win alone or as part of a coalition for the far-right at Parliamentary elections that will follow the Pres one.

Democracy is not working, French people believe. They hate Macron, do not like most politicians and many would not mind illiberal leaders if it caused things to "work better."
Ouch.
Next year, a crowded field at Presidential election could lead to a far-right vs far-left second round.
