About two-thirds of Canadians surveyed this month said American democracy cannot survive another four years of Donald Trump in the White House, and about half said the United States is on the way to becoming an authoritarian state, a poll released on Monday said.

      All this comment does is muddy the waters with unsubstantiated claims and whataboutisms. This looks like the exact kind of social engineering being pumped out of China and Russia to attack our democracy and weaken the unity and resolve of Canadians and Americans. Get this shit out of here.

      It wasn’t that long ago we were told to worry Trump was going to start WW3 by attacking Russia as one example.

      No one ever said that. Ever.

      Who was saying Trump would attack Russia? People know his wealth comes from Russia and he fawns over Putin. The worry was that he would be too friendly to Putin.

      If there’s just one reason I don’t want Trump in office, it’s that I don’t want to have news on whatever Trump lied about air on Citynews EVERY goddamn evening.

      But we are beyond that. If Trump and his increasingly deranged advisers get to the levers of powers again… it’s not going to be good.

      • Has Biden ever said something to the effect of “As President I’ll be dictator just for a day?”
      • Have Biden and his supporters organized a violent attack on the Capitol?

      Polievre is a sniveling liar playing political games in our Parliament but even he and 90% of his party haven’t done the likes of above…

      Up in Canada we have our share of kooks like the folks that camped out in Ottawa for some time and blocked border crossings… but it’s very clear the source of this type of rhetoric is imported from Americans.
