My Take
Baroin reads, to me, as the consummate professional politician. Paris-born, he moved from journalism to law to politics, rising to Finance Minister in 2011 to 2012, and he was a long-time ally of Jacques Chirac. What I find most telling is that even while holding national office, he never let go of being Mayor of Troyes, a post he has held since 1995. That refusal to abandon his local roots strikes me as deeply French, and a smart kind of durability. A man who made his living with words tends to know how to navigate a room, and I rather respect that solidity.
