Emmanuel Macron once appeared as a bold, young leader offering to revive France through radical pro-business, pro-European policies so that voters have "no reason anymore" to vote for the extremes. Seven years after he was first elected, his call for snap elections weakens him at home and abroad, while it appears to propel the far right on the verge of power.
