Bear in mind, Macron was first elected on the promise he would "normalize" French politics and squeeze the far right out.

Aren't they always...

I don't see why you're so worried, President Macron will keep a tight leash on Chancellor Le Pen and the realities of governing will mellow out her radical tendencies.
