Ticket. Dissolution: Sarkozy says yes and Macron would say no

Emmanuel Macron would be wrong to worry, there is life after the Élysée, and in a year and a half at the latest, he will even be able to verify it. François Hollande has become a member of parliament again and Nicolas Sarkozy , between two court dates, comments on current events . And if the former seems embarrassed by the idea of ​​overthrowing a government, the latter, always listened to on the right, does not hesitate to criticize. And to put it another way: to destroy. In an interview with Le Figaro , he unsurprisingly criticizes François Bayrou 's decision, "a form of political suicide", suggests that he should have "tried to find a compromise on the budget", before arriving at the conclusion: "I had the opportunity to say this to the President of the Republic this summer: I am convinced that there will be no other solution than dissolution."

The opportunity to slip a message to his Republican friends, urging them not to support the Prime Minister. "If we are heading, as I believe, towards legislative elections in a few weeks, how will the Republicans be able to campaign without being associated with a government in which they have voted confidence?"

Because François Bayrou may well be making concessions, from public holidays to the AME, and receiving Olivier Faure , the matter seems settled. Dissolution would therefore be inevitable, as Nicolas Sarkozy believes. Yes for a large part of the political class, no for Emmanuel Macron, who is resuming his consultations. The Élysée Palace is letting slip that it would like to move quickly to appoint a new Prime Minister compatible with the Socialists. Like last summer, names come and go: Lecornu, Darmanin, Faure...

If this scenario is confirmed, the President will have to speak. Starting Tuesday, to announce his fifth Prime Minister in three years? Remember that it took him 52 days to appoint Michel Barnier ?
