didn't think she'd win, but I didn't think Macron would get anywhere near 59% of the vote.

Why? That was very predictable.

Because I believed much of Jean Luc Melenchon's base would hold their nose and vote for Le Pen, even if they didn't admit it openly. Melenchon is anti-EU, anti-NATO, opposes any austerity measures whatsoever when it comes to the French welfare state, opposed vaccine mandates, and has the support of trade unions and French communists. They have more in common with Le Pen than Macron, save for the immigration issues and multiculturalism.
