Power consolidation=evil.

Nah.
Current situation at the assembly is chaotic. Macron is just looking for the coalition that would bring the most stabilibity, and NPF is not it. They would be taken down within a week with 99% certainty.

It's a bit technical here, but here's the thing:

Macron is not at stake here, so he's not doing a coup. His government resigned, and it was accepted. For now, they're remaining in place until a new government is formed because there cannot be no government. So they're not doing a coup either, they officially resigned.

The NPF didn't win the election per say. Winning the election for the assembly in France means having an absolute majority at the assembly. They are VERY far from it. It's like if you had 9 parties who had 100 seats each and one that had 101 seat and you said they won the election. Sure, they have more seats than other individual parties, but they're not in position to form a government and govern. Proof is, there's no law that force the president to nominate someone from a side that doesn't have an absolute majority.

Nah.

They won an election and they should be given a chance to form a coalition.

Not even giving someone to form a government even after they win an election is the literal definition of coup.

France is a parliamentary system, where the assembly votes the laws. the ranking in the election results doesnt matter if it doesn't translate into an absolute majority of seats. What matters is the capacity to form a coalition that would reach an absolute majority of seats at the assembly, so that they would be able to govern. The only angle the NPF has is "we arrived 1st". They know, and French ppl know, it doesnt mean shit in this case, cause the election result gave a structurally fucked up situation. Even if Macron were to resign and NFP won the presidential elections, they cant dissolve the assembly for another year, so it would still be the same clusterfuck.

No, he denies the result of the vote he forced.
