Jordan Bardella, the president of France’s hard right National Rally, has cancelled his plans to speak at CPAC after Steve Bannon “proactively made a gesture referring to Nazi ideology.”
In other words, Bannon and CPAC are now too extreme for the French extreme right.

He’s afraid to fly?
They know what fascism looks like
They have changed since but still
Haven’t quite figured out if they are doing this as some sort of an attempt at image make over or what
Much Like Farage and Reform in the UK.
Act like rational, normal, reasonable politicians to get into power.
Start deportations as soon as you are.
They agree with Trump/Musk/AfD... they just don't want it to be obvious that they do.
"Steve Bannon is actually just a superfan of Fawlty Towers".
(Hopefully, never. Obviously.)
What has America become??
Obama and Biden expelled many more illegals than Trump does, without resorting to these delation tactics.
Why?
Or is it just that they know the bulk of the French public won't want any part of that, come election time.
Regardless of Brexit or any of that, lets hope that this really starts to galvanise Europe against these fucking scumbags.
Nazi Steve Bannon
Being seen with hitler salute-throwing neo-nazis would be a major setback in this endeavour.
The "Great Replacement theory" is a French export, in the end. Cocorico.
It's a matter of convenience, it's not (at all) about personal conviction, ethics or principles.
Don't make Bardella "the good guy" in this story, because he's not.
He's just pretending to be decent - but he's as bad as Bannon.
Vance and Musk publicly and repeatedly recommend voting for this party in this Sunday's elections.
80% of all Germans categorically reject this party!
Millions recently demonstrated against these fascists.
Bannon and Musk have the depth and awareness of a door nail.
The inflation growth/real wages stagnation has been skyrocketing the cost of living in the UK for the last few years.
But of course a large part of the electorate think its uniquely British problem.
The same goes for my family who live in the Czech Republic.
Absolutely no sense of how global events affected these things.
It’s particularly a failure of the media to explain what happened to global economy.
And to explain, how populists take advantage of it.
I can't with stupid.
