Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre thinks it would be “not fair” for the Liberals to oust Prime Minister Justin Trudeau now, as in his view they are “morally obligated” to keep him.
Poilievre’s comments come ahead of another potentially significant Liberal caucus meeting Wednesday, during which members are expected to continue discussions around the party’s leadership and the next election.
“I think the Liberals are morally obligated to keep Justin Trudeau,” Poilievre told 580 CFRA’s The Morning Rush host Bill Carroll in a radio interview on Tuesday.
Could be. Even then, it’s still so odd. He’s in this political win-win situation, where he has an advantage if Trudeau stays on, and he has an advantage if the Liberals make a last-minute change and roll into the election (that we all know is lingering) with an untested newbie.
Although, the CPC and Poilievre didn’t earn this excellent spot on the chessboard by any strategic triumph, so maybe it’s not so surprising that he appears to have no idea how to work the pieces.
Honestly I make the same assumption about a lot of his positions. Much of what he says or suggests policy wise doesn’t hold up if you dig into it. So why say it in the first place?
Most of the platform is being built on people being angry and not understanding the systems that are being talked about.
From that perspective it makes sense that they need to continue to feed lies, half-truths and other nonsense to keep people angry.
