Here is the coolest thing; in Paris, Le Pen got 5% of the vote.  She got 3% of the vote in the 11 Arrondisement, where both Charlie Hebo's old offices and the Bataclan are located.  So people who were literally terrorized by ISIS all said "non" to Marine Le Pen and her form of hatred.

As for Macron, he might have benefited from getting his feet wet this time and then winning next time.  However, I do appreciate the sort of "third way politics" he is pushing.  My experience as a #NeverTrump Republican during 2016 has led me to conclude that partisanship is toxic and I appreciate someone running on a positive centrist vision which doesn't involve scapegoating others.  Can we have that here?
