Opinion of Valéry Giscard d'Estaing

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Seeing as the Fifth Republic will, barring some drastic upheaval, have its second centrist leader (albeit of a different tradition) I thought I'd poll the first centrist Pres.

[Maxwell]

idk, did some okay things, but like most leaders who emerged in the 70s, kind of a disappointing flop.

[Mr. Smith]

The right type of Centrist.

Rocky GOP types are much better than DLC/"New" Dems.

Of course, the funniest thing is that since his presidency he has settled in to write romantic novels. Onr of which described in detail, no joke, a passionate love affair between a French President clearly modeled on himself and a British Princess modeled after Diana.

he has had a very odd post-presidency - including approving of Russian occupation of Crimea.

A GREAT RED TORY FF!

Seriously, a thoroughly mediocre figure. Probably the second most personally unlikable person to hold the office after Poison Dwarf. Did a few good things on social issues, but otherwise pretty forgettable.

[DavidB.]

Terrible foreign policy.
