read down too far and briefly thought Pennsylvania Josh was prime minister somehow

do they win the franco-prussian war somehow?
No Franco Prussian War actually,Bismarck dies in 1866 and a World War happens in 1878 over the Dardanelles (like it nearly happened OTL,that Dizzy I tell ya),with Britain,France and the Ottomans on one side and the Germans and Russians on the other.
With the Bonapartists getting lucky repeatedly but without the necessary personalism of Boney III,the Third Empire eventually turns into a crowned parliamentarian republic of sorts as it chugs along. Ollivier is relatively competent enough to make the economy acceptable for most and with a gradual liberalization and constant referendums the Republicans are mostly located within the city of Paris. The situation prior to the Franco-Prussian War is maintained and,like OTL,no one outside of Paris really believes in republicanism anymore truthfully.
The Populares only win due to fatigue and the division between the conservative and the reformist Bonapartists created by Murat wanting a changing of the guard and more profund reforms. His anti corruption campaign (started by Thiébaud but taken to the next level by Murat and the Young Wolves in the cabinet) starts backfiring once his coterie‘s own dirty dealings are revealed.
Also the Legitimists and other Russophile forced end up being banned and sent to jail due to their failed plots to overthrow the Emperor during the War.

very romanian of you to make a Second French Empire wank. it assumes the later Bonapartes are less… harebrained than others.
it’d say the parisians still have a shot at Doing A Republic if shit gets bad enough again, especially during a war. How’s socialism doing? how banned is it, and is there a radical underground? it feels with a parliamentary monarchy if there’s enough bourgeois consolidation (in what seems like a pretty conservative democracy) the labour movement must be gaining steam becauee Arc of History blah blah blah
Radicals of any kind (or more specifically those radicals who the President of the Council views as a threat to the nation),including conservatives,are mostly absent in the mainstream due to them ending up in jail/exiled and the War ending up favorably for France. There are a couple of anarchists and Blaqui followers still around but they’re marginals,the Parisians are divided between the old guard of Republicans and the new ones like Clemenceau.
Due to the contradictions of Bonapartism,the parliamentary monarchy is both conservative and radical,being a proto Peronism/ Gaullism. The France of 1915 isn’t too different from how the Third Republic felt like,just slightly more similar to,say,pre 1970’s Ireland or a more stable Argentina. Ollivier and his successors mostly manage to appease the labour movement and when they do a mistake either they try fixing it or the population at large doesn’t care. Remember,even after 1871 a vast majority of France was at best apathetic towards the Republic.
Not good,not terrible basically.

it'd argue that apathy is surprisingly dangerous ground if the going ever gets tough; there'd probably be a fair amount of trouble (maybe some blood) in an economic downturn, or at least a labour politics movement ala Britlab
Oh yes,definitely.
