One theory some analysts say is that since Macron's second term ends in 2027, and since it's his last, if the FN doesn't govern well, then his party might be able to win again.

Basically, they're saying that Macron is playing a dangerous game of chess.

Ah, the good old von-Papen-maneuver. This time it will work for sure. What could possibly go wrong?

I agree with this theory. The public opinion changes very fast in France, it is risky but could work. Besides, the far-right would have kept rising till the presidentials anyways.
