What is Marine Le Pen doing at Trump Tower?
Marine Le Pen popping up at Trump Tower has provoked a predictable storm of fury. Of course we don’t know if the Front National leader is actually there to meet Donald Trump or not. It does, though, seem like a long way to travel to do without a ride in Trump’s gilded elevator and a snapped selfie with the president-elect. Perhaps then the draw of the Trump Tower cafe proved too alluring to resist during Le Pen’s unscheduled visit to New York. But while details about exactly what she is up to in Trump Tower are thin on the ground, the fact she is there at all is certainly interesting.
