Those angry rust belt voters down south didn't all wake up one day and said "I really want a racist pedophile as a president". They genuinely got left behind and bought into the lie that Donald will drain the swamp and fix the economy.
Of course he did exactly what everyone watching closely had expected. We're not immune and we might get our Trump moment as well. That'll suck for everybody.
Pierre isn't even that terrible compared to Donald. He played a little footsie with unsavory characters. Make inroads with convoy supporters, manosphere, but he's constantly under attack by very extreme right for being a libtard wokeboi. Mostly because he's still not comfortable fanning the flames of race wars or call for remigration. His culture wars are not extreme enough for those types.
If our left won't let plebs feel any pride in their life in the country, we can easily have our own right wing populist moment. This isn't to say that I disagree with you, PM Carney genuinely was our best option to survive the battles imposed on us and I'm happy he's at the wheel. He still doesn't have to go acting like he's living in the post-soviet-moment. That ship has sailed. Stop selling every asset. Stop privatizing everything. What's he going after next, healthcare?
