Waly Dia looks back on his clash with Marion Maréchal on the set of Quelle epoque! (VIDEO)

Léa Salamé hosted a new issue of What an era! Saturday, February 4 and during his show Marion Maréchal and Waly Dia got a little carried away. The journalist asked Marion Maréchal why she usually prefers to intervene in 100% political programs. Marine Le Pen’s niece then explained that “the mixture of genres does not always allow you to develop your thinking effectively”, before adding: “Often, we see through humor which is, in reality, a lot of politics. And so it’s true that it’s complicated when you have the weapons of humor on one side, to answer, when we are, we, on the political background.” A statement that Waly Dia, who provides a humorous column in By Jupiter on France Inter, took for him. Marion Maréchal then denied, assuring that there was nothing personal. And to add:You, you are in the field of humor so very well”. The comedian answered him directly: “And you, you are on the ground of racism, that’s another thing! Atmosphere.

Strong tensions between Waly Dia and Marion Maréchal

During the debate, the comedian was asked what he thought of Marion Maréchal and the Reconquest party. “We are in front of people who always harp on the same things. We were talking about pensions, we are coming to immigration. We talk about the state of hospitals, we come to immigration. (…) We are still faced with people who have been exploiting this vein for a long time because it is a business! This policy, these parties…” To which Marion Maréchal replied: “No, it’s not a business. I’m sorry to tell you that I don’t get up in the morning thinking that I’m going to make money on the backs of the French. You have the right to think so but in this case it is totally false (…) Make jokes, it works better, whatever…” Léa Salamé was forced to intervene to try to calm things down: “There, it’s contemptuous”, she cropped.

Waly Dia looks back on his clash with Marion Maréchal

This February 6 on France inter, Waly Dia returned to these tensions with Marion Maréchal. And the comedian has again paid for politics. “Saturday I was on Léa Salamé’s show with The Big Mouths of RMC, Marlène Schiappa, and Marion Maréchal. I said to myself ‘everything is going pretty well in my life, let’s add a little suffering otherwise it will be suspicious’“, he begins. Before continuing: “My instinct told me ‘don’t go’, the problem is that my instinct speaks much less loudly than my bullshit and in addition I had the nerve to tell the heiress Le Pen what was on the ground of racism. When I see a cat, I say it’s a cat, I don’t call it a moped to please the cat.” Waly Dia quips.

“This week, the black man giving his opinion was me”

The columnist of France inter continued his analysis of his passage in the emission of France 2. “She told me ‘we have to stop the caricatures’ (…) It surprised me coming from someone whose family has been doing caricatures from father to daughter for 60 years (…) The problem is that they are no longer used to being told that they are racist in the face because throughout the set it talks about de-demonization, that it’s not the extreme right, that it’s the right of the right, you take a right after the second right”, underlines Waly Dia, who has been the target of criticism on social networks. “So following his words, big whining from the fachosphere (…) they fell on me because it can’t be all the time Omar Sy, he’s not there, I mean sometimes. This week, the black man who gave his opinion was me”, he continued, provoking the laughter of the journalists present on set. And the comedian ended his column by tackling Marine Le Pen’s niece again.
