Media pundit Eric Zemmour is emerging as one of the most popular French presidential candidates as he talks about gun rights, banning immigration and civil war. And he hasn’t even confirmed he’s running.
Zemmour would get 17% of votes in the first round of the election on April 10, effectively knocking out nationalist candidate Marine Le Pen, who’d win 15%, as well as the center-right Republican party candidate, according to a poll by Harris Interactive for Challenges magazine. Emmanuel Macron would get 24%.
