Pierre Poilievre is too big a risk to lead the Conservatives

[AlbertaFarmer5]

These are my thoughts as well.

And no easier way to disarm chuck, than to agree with him. He only responds to inflammatory posts.
What will you bet that he never acknowledges our agreeable posts, yet continues to post complaining that no one will engage in his discussion.

Some thrive on taking or giving a beating. It’s a sign of childhood abuse. Not necessarily just from parents. Could be peers at school even. That’s why you don’t pick on the weird kids at school.

I think the worst abuse came from someone in his young life with the best of intentions trying to compensate for him being bullied, by convincing him that he is the smartest guy in the room. And he actually believed it, and continues to believe it even to this day, much to his own detriment.

The grossly misplaced moral and intellectual superiority that he exhibits in spite of the obvious contradictory reality can lead to no other conclusion.
No doubt someone meant well, but it has been a serious disservice, turning to victim into the bully.

Yes. Intelligent in many ways with so much to offer but a bad way of going at things that makes them appear an asshole. Don’t think it’s the intent but they don’t know any better.

Glad to see that several posters don't think Pierre would be the best choice. He may appeal to angry base of voters but can he appeal to a bigger slice of the voters in Quebec and Ontario? Time will tell.

More speculation about what motivates other posters? LOL

When you don't want to discuss the short comings of Polly you can distract the readers with useless and naive ramblings?

Moving on, you would think many incumbents would suffer an electoral loss with so many issues rattling the electorate.

Doug Ford generally has a good relationship with the Federal Liberals and has been strict with covid measures and took a strong stand against the trucker blockades. And so far it looks like he is going to cruise to victory.

Both of these are hot button issues for the western wing of the CPC.

How goes Ontario will have an impact on the federal election which is a long way off in time and issues.

Are you refering to Mr Treudau's reasons for abusing western Canada?

This Mcleans interview gives a clearer look at Poilievre than generally presented in the MSM.

Maybe is we could find Tommy Douglas reincarnated he would be the choice of most of the media types and chuck who are triggered buy Poilievre's direct to the point style of questioning why this country is slipping into shithole territory.

I don’t think this race is over by any means. Thought Brown would put up a bigger showing but not so much. He is a master organizer and campaigner. I’m really torn with Polivierre’s populism and platitudes right now but Trudeau was about the same. Charest is too old and carries too much baggage. Lewis isn’t living up to the prime minister we need now and she can’t speak French. The others why are they there? Far as Covid issue it will be a nothing burger in two years and throw trucker thing in there as well. The economy will be issue #1. Need a healthy economy for an energy transition to take place.
