What what stupid ass desperate take from Poilievre void of a proper campaign strategy, goddamn. Canadians ####ing care about Trump and being annexed first and foremost, not what Carney wrote 30 years and may or may not have improperly used a source. The election is a single issue one right now that has a strong impact on the ones he want to focus on (inflation / cost of living). You have to talk about Trump
His leaked message to Conservative party supporters today was about fighting hard against "the radical woke Liberals for the future of our country". I kid you not. not a single mention of Trump in his messaging, not a single mention of protecting against tariffs.
His stance worked when everyone was rightfully fully pissed off at Trudeau-Singh and destructive policies, but all attention is on Trump / tariffs / annexation. He thinks the Trump effect will wear off.

His stupid direction will likely cost him the leadership and the CPC an extra 4 years just because they want to make this a fight against wokeness instead of a fight against the US, and don't want to lose that messaging.

I've really started to believe that they completely missed the fact that their upswing was driven heavily by anti-Trudeau, not pro-PP. That power went to their head and I just don't think they can read the challenge in front of them. If you want to really stretch it, kind of like a Hot Hand Fallacy where instead of shots, it's OG polling numbers.
