Just out of curiosity, which one is more likely to spend lavish amounts of money on government (partially) owned rail industries?  I'm asking for a friend.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Not Macron, who prefers people in coaches/busses.  :P

L'Humanité, the communist newspaper, seems skeptical though.

NB: En marche is the name of Macron's movement.

Talk about contempt for one's own culture.
