I genuinely believe that he will go down in history as our Thatcher. He has been in government for roughly 10 years now and everything he did was to destroy the fabric of the French social system.
A few things he did :
I could go on and on but you get the gist. People are tired, all the protests are violently repressed, except a few that usually are organised by the far right. People are getting poorer, our school system is crumbling, our healthcare too and the country is visible getting more authoritarian by the day. But we have a few more billionaires and the ones that were already there are richer than ever.
Edit: fixed a few typos
