“It’s an institutional problem. Nicolas Sarkozy had the same problem with François Fillion as the Prime Minister. François Hollande had the same problem with Manuel Valls. All the Presidents have had the same problem. The point where the situation is really different is that the (current) crisis is unprecedented. No President ever recently had to face such a crisis. Macron made a lot of mistakes. His main mistake was to believe he was someone outside of himself. He tried to be Clemenceau, he tried to be de Gaulle. He tried to be many things. The only thing that people expected was for him to be Emmanuel Macron. They elected someone who could be a young President who could push the techno structure, the civil servants to their limits so that they would perform better.”
