    I never want to hear “But Harper” ever again. Nothing that asshole did remotely compares to Trudeau’s malfeasance

      Much as I do like Trudeau compared to Harper, it’s far past time for Trudeau’s actions to stand or fall on their own merits.

      That said, the right-wing of Canadian politics is never going to beat Trudeau if they keep going with the insult and belittling route. They’ve done it in every election they’ve faced Trudeau in and lost every, single, time. The Conservatives should have won they last election, and blew it because the didn’t think Trudeau had the savvy or skill to come back from the blackface scandal. The truth is, Justin is an excellent political operator and usually one of the best there is in working social media.

      Polievere only has a solid chance now due to a combination of voter fatigue (almost no PM makes it past 10 years) and some serious missteps by Trudeau. As far as malfeasance goes, you better have some solid proof, like in a court of law level proof, and be able to make it stick, without you sounding like a raving lunatic who is best ignored.

        Man, when you look outside at the world, do you really see anything resembling a good job done by that fucking idiot? I see severe damage that’ll never be fixed. As for “never beat”, they’ve actually scored more of the popular vote but yknow how ridings work. Malfeasance doesn’t necessarily mean something he can be charged for. It can mean just fucking the country.

          Malfeasance

          Malfeasance is an act that is illegal and causes physical or monetary harm to someone else. Malfeasance is intentional conduct that is wrongful or unlawful, especially by officials or public employees.

          And yes, I see a great many good things done by Trudeau. But, you obviously disagree with me and I doubt anything either of us say will convince the other so we’ll just leave it at that.
