Canada's PM tells hard truth about America



Vlad Vexler posts a clip from Canada that is tough to wath but important. I don't know if this country will seesaw back and forth between the rule of law and the rule of a dictatorship backed by a plutocratic oligarchy or if it will wake the hell up and discard the latter. I do know that the rest of the world will find ways to do without us.

(Vexler seems to have been improving, he looks and sounds much stronger)

People could have forgiven us the mistake of one term for a raving lunatic. They won't forgive us for two.

Most nations have had women in high office. They don't understand the level of misogyny here that elected chaos instead of sanity.

but a country that would suffer four years of him, ending with a violent attempt to stay in power, impose no consequences on him for that insurrection, and then vote him back into office is a country that cannot be trusted as a stable partner in anything.

Sad to say.
