Before the Battle of Helm’s Deep in Lord of the Rings, King Théoden gives a memorable monologue as he dons his battle gear while the orcs approach, which he ends forebodingly by asking, “How did it come to this?” Staring out from the Élysée Palace following the results from Sunday’s parliamentary elections, Emmanuel Macron was no doubt asking himself the same question. Théoden, of course, went on to pull off a miraculous win over the forces of darkness.
