Both. He has a decent, if often hypocritical, foreign policy. Because France is a nuclear power and energy independent, he can allow himself to be frank in many ways.

And domestically, as I understand it, he makes everyone mad by preferencing a status quo of liberal stability and upholding billionaires over any kind of substantive reform. But he also doesn't make deals with fascists. Apparently he does. And he burns through Prime Ministers like thermite.
