“Annoy” the non-vaccinated: faced with Macron’s “cynicism”, Pécresse wants to “raise the presidential function”

Valérie Pécresse wants to embody “ respect ”. She repeated it several times during her press conference held this Saturday, January 8 at her campaign headquarters, in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Surrounded by the main tenors of the right – Gérard Larcher, Christian Jacob, Bruno Retailleau, Annie Genevard – and his former opponents of the LR congress, his “ musketeers ” – Éric Ciotti, Michel Barnier and Xavier Bertrand (Philippe Juvin being absent, tested positive for Covid-19) -, the LR candidate for the presidential election strongly criticized the President of the Republic. After Emmanuel Macron’s release this week on the non-vaccinated, whom he wishes to “piss to the end”, Valérie Pécresse castigated a ” arsonist president ” who arouses, through his statements, “ discord and contempt ”. According to her, the exits of the President of the Republic “ fuel the rejection of all authority figures, fracture the country and divide the French “. “ Faced with cynicism, I realize that I have to raise the presidential office “, she underlines.

(…) The excess assumed will not prevent us from talking about the project ”, he continued, accusing Emmanuel Macron of “ creating a diversion ”.

A “pile of renunciations”

During her speech, Valérie Pécresse also denounced a “ talkative presidency ” with “ words without a future » and « broken promises ». If she is elected, the president of the Ile-de-France region wishes to “ fight (…) the accumulation of renunciations and inertia ” and put an end to ” the impotence of the State ”, an “ evil which corrodes our country ”. According to her, if Emmanuel Macron did not succeed, it is also because he acted alone. “ The outgoing president staged a solitary presidency disconnected from the deep aspirations and daily difficulties of the French ”, she attacks. On the contrary, it wishes to rely on “collective intelligence“. “ Neither egocentrism nor narcissism, I will not be a soloist president but a conductor “, she promises, insisting on her desire to give back “from power to the territories”.

According to her, the President of the Republic is “ hard with the weak and weak with the strong ”.

It is “not the role” of elected LRs to sponsor Éric Zemmour

Asked about the rumors that have been circulating for a few days, according to which LR would discreetly intend to help Éric Zemmour by not sanctioning his elected officials who would grant him their sponsorship, the candidate let it be known that it was “ not (his ) role ” nor that of the elected LR to provide assistance to the nationalist. “ The elected Republicans bring their sponsorship to their candidate and must sponsor their candidate ”, she decided. However, Valérie Pécresse believes that when “apolitical personality represents a current of thought, she must be able to present herself”. “ We have to fight so that all those who do not think like us can say it ”, she defends. And to add that for her, the question of the anonymity of the elected officials sponsoring the candidates – removed during the mandate of François Hollande – “ arises “. “ When a certain number of mayors find themselves unable to sponsor the candidate of their political heart, it is problematic for democracy ”, she ends.
