  • Not really directed at you specifically, it’s just that it seems like the top response to Trump doing anything is that it’s just a distraction. I can’t really put my finger on exactly what it is about it that bugs me, but I think it just comes across as dismissive

    Edit: I think it bothers me the most when it’s something in relation to a country other than the USA. Like fine, write off the stuff that only affects the US, but to hear things just shrugged off as “it’s only a distraction” from a citizen of the country where said things are really screwing us over is just irritating.

    It’s like if someone just threw a handful of shit at you and someone else says “oh yeah that’s just a distraction 🤷”












  • Definitely true, but the Liberals are starting to pull from the Cons a little bit from what I’ve seen. His first move being killing the consumer carbon tax killed both of PP’s talking points (carbon tax & Trudeau), while also showing that he’s different than Trudeau. That mixed with the fact that he’s kind of the stereotypical definition of a “fiscally aware” conservative politician where his entire focus is getting the country’s financials all in order above all else; at least if we ignore dealing with the sovereignty threats.

    All that to say, I think he’ll more and more start pulling in the moderate conservatives that aren’t completely bought into the Facebook cesspit politics. PP is already very disliked to them so it wouldn’t take much
