Centre

Focuses on campaign mechanics (financing, support, travel, legal compliance), behind-the-scenes details, sponsorships, and favorable opinion polls (22% ready to vote).

Right

Emphasizes behind-the-scenes support (aid promised by Emmanuel Macron according to L'Infiltré), public reservations (57% viewing the candidacy as a 'bad thing'), attracted voter bases, and criticisms regarding credibility.

    Édito. Teddy Riner et la présidentielle : l’ombre évidente d’Emmanuel Macron

    Le 14 septembre 2024, Emmanuel Macron et Teddy Riner, ensemble. - KMSP via AFP Mis en ligne le 11/11/2026 à 19:46 Lecture zen Et si Teddy Riner mettait tout le monde au tapis ! Bien sûr, « quand les types de 130 kilos disent certaines choses, ceux de 60 kilos les écoutent » , comme l’écrivait le génial Michel Audiard dans 100000 dollars au soleil, toujours est-il que l’annonce de cette candidature inattendue pour la présidentielle jette un sacré pavé dans la mare.

    Teddy Riner, ceinture noire de macronisme ?

    La candidature du quintuple champion olympique focalise toute l'attention médiatique. Derrière ce nouveau visage, qui aimerait s'élever au-dessus du champ politique « professionnel », c'est pourtant bel et bien un énième remake du « ni de gauche, ni de droite » macroniste que le judoka essaie de jouer.
