Emmanuel Macron is looking for "face-to-face situations to +ritualize + the fact that he keeps control, renews dialogue," says Fabienne Martin-Juchat, professor of communication sciences at the University of Grenoble-Alpes. "The danger is that he is still quite impulsive, as when he invited an unemployed person to cross the street to find a job," observes François Jost, semiologist and professor emeritus at La Sorbonne Nouvelle.

Emmanuel Macron acquiesces as often as he can, trying to avoid any provocation that could fuel his trial in arrogance.
