It's currently happening in France.
From Arnaud Bertrand:
Update: it's now official, in a just-released communiqué Macron has rejected a government led by the New Popular Front (NPF).
It's an unprecedented situation in the history of the 5th French Republic: the loser in the election effectively rejects yielding power to the winner.
He explains it by the fact that his "responsibility is to ensure that the country be neither blocked nor weakened."
Macron's party got way fewer votes and MPs than the NPF, yet it is Macron's party that's still running the French government, and it is Macron himself making choices on who can or cannot assume power based on what he thinks would "weaken France" or not. It's insane when you think about it."
“The decline of community in the modern world has as its inevitable religious consequence the creation of masses of helpless, bewildered individuals who are unable to find solace in Christianity regarded merely as creed.”

American diplomacy should continue to stand up for genuine democracy, freedom of expression, and unapologetic celebrations of European nations’ individual character and history. America encourages its political allies in Europe to promote this revival of spirit, and the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism. Our goal should be to help Europe correct its current trajectory.
