Marine Le Pen displayed the influence she wields on France by toppling the government but she is also facing a trial that risks banishing her from politics for good.
Le Pen, who took over the far-right mantle from her father Jean-Marie, has over the last decade sought to turn her National Rally (RN) party into an electable force, even if critics still accuse it of being inherently racist.
The work of «dediabolisation» («de-demonisation») bore fruit in the snap legislative polls this summer, with the RN emerging as the largest single party in the National Assembly, although without the outright majority it had targeted.
That gave Le Pen unprecedented power over French politics, which she used by backing a no-confidence vote that toppled the government of Prime Minister Michel Barnier late Wednesday.
Speaking in an interview with TF1, she was at pains not to crow over his departure and also stopped short of asking President Emmanuel Macron to resign.
