The problem is Macron isn't actually respecting democracy. He called an election, the left-wing NUPES alliance won the most seats, but rather than work with them in a coalition to keep the far right out, he tries keeping NUPES out. Those actions erode support for liberal democracy.
France is not alone in its political crisis – belief in a democratic world is vanishing | Simon Tisdall
The populist right offers a solution in the form of turning back the clock. Macron and his counterparts need to find a different answer fast, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall

The agreement Republicans have is "I'm gonna break a bunch of stuff that benefits other people we don't like. It'll be painful for a bit, but don't worry, I'll take care of you in a different way." This is all about creating selective policy that only benefits in-groups.

80 of the University of Arizona's most elite faculty, all Regents professors, are calling for rejection of the Trump administration's proposed compact. They make a key point I hadn't really focused on: The compact's benefits are completely nebulous.

One of the only things Trump has ever been right about: Obama had no business winning the Nobel Peace Prize for what amounted to the accomplishment of being a US president who was not George W Bush. (Remember, he had been in office for eight months at the time.)

Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

The police funding discussion was laughed at… “what do you mean DEFUND the police?”.
Funding levels have skyrocketed to support the activities we see right now.
Now it’s “…but nobody knew it would be this bad…”

It’s actually incredible how wrong Ezra is about “needing” to welcome anti-abortion and anti-trans politicians. Democrats were unable to protect vulnerable people BECAUSE they had conservative lawmakers in their ranks—including one Joe Manchin. Alongside Sinema, he blocked codifying Roe v. Wade
![Screenshot 2 of 2 of Ezra Klein speaking on his own podcast with Ta-Nehisi Coates:
Coates: But if you're going to say that, I think you really have to put the data behind it. I think that's really important.
Klein: I will stand behind it. I will say, and I think this is actually the nub of it - I'm glad we're here.
I am saying the thing it sounds like I'm saying. To be very clear. I think in a place like Nebraska, you should try to run some pro-life Democrats. I wish people, **instead of saying that an expressive or strategic question in politics was betraying or abandoning the people we wish to protect, I wish what we said was: We lost power in a way that allowed Donald Trump to drive the Supreme Court to a 6-3 Republican majority, and that majority overturned Roe v.Wade and actually abandoned all these people, actually [expletive] them over.**
