"Le Pen was creating a model of far-right national populism that has since swept much of the globe, with an artful mix of violent rhetoric against immigrants."
"His political record was long, ugly, vicious, and depressingly successful, drawing attention with a loud voice and blunt, aggressive manner."
"Constantly gesturing with his fists, Le Pen became known for his street brawling against Communists, reflecting his embrace of the extreme from an early age."
"His frequent attacks on Jewish Prime Minister Mendès-France were laced with unabashed antisemitism, revealing his deep-seated prejudices even as a young politician."
