    To my eyes, Macron clearly has some egotistical and authoritarian impulses.

    He clearly seems to believe that he knows better than other people, and has little patience for what they want or say.

        Those who are meant to lead, choose not to. Those who are not meant to lead, choose to do so.

        Never trust someone who wishes to become a leader above you.
