Another thing, why are people being political agitators of a country they don't even live in? Especially one that seems on the brink of civil war. Half their country are trump supporters, right or wrong. Sorry dude. Don’t agree with you in the least on that one. That was a great discussion all around.

Went right over their heads. Another thing, why are people being political agitators of a country they don't even live in? Especially one that seems on the brink of civil war. Half their country are trump supporters, right or wrong. I'd argue it's less than half. Doesn't mean the "main candidate" with the other party has the rest (or even just as much). Much like Harry Neale essentially said on what you have to do with succeed as a NHL head coach (heh, not that he was a great NHL head coach). "you have often one third of the locker room with you and one third of the locker room against you at the start.....you job is to win over the ones on the fence". Hillary didn't bother trying to get the ones on the fence - that's why she lost. You have to give reasons for people to vote for you (vs just "I am not this guy"). She didn't do that (or do it enough). Edited May 25, 2020 by NewbieCanuckFan 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some tried to label him as 'Alt right' and a 'fascist mystic.' They are completey wrong, he's a centralist that leans to the right a little. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY Latest protest at Queen's Park in Toronto included a march and people licking statues The CBC Gem website has a free documentary on right now called "Influencer" about how Tim Bell and his ad agency influenced movements all over the globe. Its a fascinating look into the machinery that drives people to come out and do crazy ass things like this protest. So the question is, who benefits by people coming out and protesting like this is a clearly nut bar way? who stands to gain? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
