What will be the impact of the French Elections geopolitically? And why do French (and European) voters support the far right anyway, considering their overwhelmingly negative media portrayal?

With a deluge of frightening and fire and brimstone headlines, it is clear there is tremendous concern about French voters' choices, with all sorts of pundits and experts warning of all sorts of dire consequences, whether a dictatorship, financial crisis, or even a victory for Russia and China.

French voters have clearly ignored these warnings, preferring instead to (metaphorically) storm the Bastille and send a middle finger to the Palace Élysée.

Whether the Le Pen/Bardella wins a majority or not, clearly France and French foreign policy will change in a manner the pundit and elite classes find unpleasant.

So my questions are- what sorts of changes are in store, and what in France (as well as other European countries such as the Netherlands) is so bad that voters are voting for far-right parties, despite the obvious risks and their negative media portrayal?

PS- Please keep your answers impartial, lest the mods take this thread down.
