Far-right French politician Le Pen sighted at Trump Tower
By Noah Gray and Julia Manchester, CNN

New York (CNN)The leader of France's far-right National Front party, Marine Le Pen, was seen in Trump Tower in Manhattan on Thursday.
Le Pen, who in November called President-elect Donald Trump's victory a "sign of hope" for people who are against globalization, was not on a readout of meetings provided to the press earlier Thursday. Sean Spicer, the incoming White House press secretary, said neither Trump nor anyone else from the transition team will meet with her. Spicer has also said recently that Trump would not be meeting with any foreign leaders prior to the Inauguration.

"Trump Tower is open to the public," he said.
Le Pen, who is widely expected to be a front-runner in France's presidential elections this year, has blamed globalization and wide-scale international migration for causing conflicts around the world.

The term "far right" in the context of European media means anybody not willing to be overrun by muslim "migrants" and "refugees."

The "far right" in Europe that oppose rapes, assaults, robbery by muslims etc.

Social Justice Warriors claim the "far right" are "goose steppers."

The term Far Right is a statist dog whistle.

The National Front can be called worse, so the headline is really besides the point. I wish her luck, her opponent, would be what they call center right, like I have said before, we might call Romney "center right" and some other politicians might be called "right wing".

Columnists like Pat Buchanan have written books "Right from the start" so some people take the moniker and don't avoid it and almost wear it proudly.

Francois Fillon Marine must be her opponent.

Father Le Pen of course, actually ran into legal problems per his views: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marie_Le_Pen

Pat Buchanan was the only politician I ever donated to.
Or ever will donate to.

Le Pen is a full blown Communist and a real piece of garbage. Nigel Farage doesn't even want to be associated with her.
