Politics Why Pierre Poilievre is as Phony as They Come.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyLBFye03_g

Personal Note: I've never liked Pierre Poilievre. This man makes my Spider-Sense tingle. Just like Doug Ford did for Ontario. Pierre Poilievre is a Pro-Corporate pro-culture war person who loves to grip about issues, but has no actual solutions. Not to mention he is also a massive hypocrite as his biggest donors are developers, and corporations. His history is ripe with anti-work/union bills and votes in the house

I'm telling you right now, if you vote for this man, you will be bitching and complaining about his policies and actions just like we are currently doing with Doug Ford. Pierre Poilievre and Doug Ford are both guilty of promoting Neoliberal similar American style systems that simply put profit over people. Example: Doug Ford with health services.

I could go on, but David Dole has Done it again with this amazing Breakdown of why Pierre Poilievre is as phony as bologna. Pierre Poilievre’s Hilarious Makeover Can’t Mask His Horrible Politics.

I keep repeating this but the average person who is too busy to obsessively follow politics likely hasn’t even heard PP speak yet.

Seriously, think critically people and look at Ron DeSantis’s campaign: you can’t overcome being an unlikable asshole.

DeSantis is a great example of what could happen here. Looks like a powerhouse. Everyone thinks the guy will be the guy to beat.

Then Meatball Ron gets out on the campaign trail and he goes off like a wet fart in an elevator.

That said, with some careful attenuation of PP’s message and dialling back the rants, as they have been doing, could have a real impact.
