Edit 4 (I'll stop I'm sorry I already ran out of character space): "Speaking of, did they ever catch the sniper that shot your predecessor?"
I know you're constantly making references to events after the interview, but this still presents a continuity error imo. What happened was this: Yvette gets voted in, OSIRIS attacks the Elysee Palace, general chaos, Annette takes power, gets legally deposed, Yvette finishes her term, replacement canidate goes in with Renard as VP, replacment gets shot by a sniper, renard gets emergancy sworn in, renard willingly trades spots with hiver since she realizes from the trial that the STD has the real power in France. At no point does Hiver's predecessor get shot by a sniper.
