And us Canadians bitch about how corrupt Trudeau is and the like (granted, he absolutely has issues and shouldn't be in office anymore); this whole saga makes that look like a joke in comparison.

Yeah, I always kind of scratched my head at what the problem is with some Canadians and Trudeau.
But this sort of crap is common. I've been watching debates and there were Americans who are literally convinced that Elizabeth Warren is a fascist who is interested in doing bribery-based governance all while declaring wars all around the world. Mostly a certain sliver of Bernie Sanders fans (you guys should stop, you're making it worse!) who think that only through the glorious leadership of Bernie will the US move to the left. As an outsider, I see like 14 or 15 guys/girls running for the Democratic Nominee that would be a fantastic US President. Bernie isn't even that much better than some of them... perhaps a little more mature than Gillibrand, for example (who, as I said in earlier posts, reminds me of Tracy Flick from the 1999 film Election); while Gillibrand is really snippy, she'd be a fantastic US President (and probably really hated at the same time due to her snippiness): Castro, Booker, Williamson (and that might be entertaining because some of the interpretation of the language she uses scares the crap out of people), Yang, Inslee; even the dorkier/less intelligent sorts like Beto, Ryan, and Buttigieg would all make pretty great Presidents - and Americans may be more comfortable with the dumber side of the left (American TV often portrays intelligent people as evil or undesirable so it's clear that intelligence is not a virtue over there).
But now I'm ranting! So I'll stop.
Have a good evening!
