The Peter Mansbridge interview was a disaster for Stephen Harper as well. Mansbridge really pushed him on a few points, including thee Duffy-Wright affair and the state of the economy.
His tone and answers on the Duffy-Wright affair were brutal. I'm no expert in lie detecting, but it is so obvious he is blatantly lying about the whole thing it's insulting.
Mansbridge also lobbed a softball to him at the end that he completely fumbled. Asked him what makes him as a person the best leader to be Prime Minister. He just mumbled something about being baited into talking about himself like Trump and then about having a pretty good plan for the country. Instead he could have said something meaningful like "everything I do and have done serving Canadians as Prime Minister is about making this place a better country to live - I've dedicated most of my life to public service..."
The last few weeks it's almost like he has mentally checked out.
