Italy’s Election Front-Runner Sheds Far-Right Image, Courts the West

ROME—Three years ago, Giorgia Meloni, then the leader of a small far-right party, took the stage before a large crowd gathered in front of one of Rome’s most revered churches and delivered a speech that turned her into a pop-culture sensation.

“I am Giorgia! I am a woman! I am a mother! I am Italian! I am Christian! And you can’t take that away from me,” she boomed. After the rally, two amateur DJs remixed that phrase into an electro-dance track. Intended to mock her, the track instead went viral and boosted her popularity among conservative voters looking for new leadership.

Italians didn't fear Mussolini either

Just remember readers, anytime MSM labels somebody is 'far right?' They are trying to undermine and malign them. The EU has already threatened Italy. That they had BETTER elect who the EU approves of or else! This isn't a f****** democracy.

Italy should learn from America's Trump disaster.

I'm Italian and Giorgia Meloni has never forgotten his fascist past, the base of her party is made by people that in the last elections voted fascist parties like 'casapound',she'll be not the first woman, but the first fascist since Mussolini. nofascismi 25settembre elezioni

Fascista

She will not condemn Putin.

She sounds terrifying. Don’t let her shed her right wing “past”.

O q nao s diz na EU.Tratam na como ums perigosa fascista .Sera q EU virou comunista?

Chamberlain award 2022.

Leopards don't change their spots.

As long as she's prepared to discard those insane & inane sanctions of the EU & the US against Russia so that the Italian economy may return to a position of stability & the people of Italy may breath again...France & Germany are next in line to remove their anti people gov'ts

Another right wing in semi-left european tyranny. So happy! Bravo Italy!

But the symbolism and rhetoric remains.

Do what u gotta do

What does she say about putin and war in Ukraine?

Wolf in sheep’s clothing.

So did Hitler when he ran for Chancellor.

When the main stream media use the term far-right to describe a political leader the you know that is the best candidate. Without exception their prioritise are, free speech, strong family values, anti crime and close borders. Thanks WSJ for making her my choice.

Italy? What business is it of yours to presume you know what Italy should fear or not if they democratically have elected the person on whom you pronounce!?

Conservatori Cosa stanno conservando Tradizioni radicate nella paura e nell'ignoranza infondate. Tradizioni di incest, Odio, Omicidio.. Un conservatore è un'estrema destra e l'estrema destra è di fatto estremismo..

You are wrong!!!! Please silent!!!

So we are fully endorsing fascism now. Cool.

You are no more allowed to go on with your low profile propaganda ' behind a locked door '. This is unlawful .

Don’t fall for it, Italy!

Never had a far right past. Labelled as such by the corrupt media.

Wolf in sheep’s clothing.

“Distanced” LOL.

Doesn't listen to what she says, look at what she's shown...

We are so screwed

2 decades behind

If it talks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck; it's a duck. She is a far right extremist and the women in Italy should be very worried.

Only problem: She IS far-right.
