As Kinsella predicted, our next election will be all about the deranged American president and his authoritarian imposition on American democracy. He's not even in office yet and most of his cabinet nominees are either unqualified or unworthy. The more Trump goes off the right-wing deep end, the more that helps the Liberals in their quest to weaken and reverse the Conservative two-year lead in the polls.
That puts Pierre in a difficult place: to maintain and perhaps increase the CPC polling lead, he has to stick to centre-right issues and not embrace anything that Trump has proposed or is doing. If Poilièvre embraces one inch of Trump's policy, it will be the beginning of the end for the CPC. As of now, Warren thinks Liberals can make gains but not reverse the Conservative lead. I'm not so sure. Trudeau is a big zero as prime minister and Liberal leader but he's both progressive and centrist -- an exact reflection of a plurality of Canadian DNA. So, expect him to lie and distort CPC positions with relish in the coming campaign. The more Trump goes whacko, the better the chances are for some kind of a Liberal comeback. This isn't 2016 or the 2016 Trump. This dipshit is far worse now than he ever was before.
In essence, if Pierre has nothing to do with Trump's policies, the CPC should be able to maintain its lead all the way to the next election. But if Poilièvre comes off as sympathetic to Trump, or his despicable agenda, then Trudeau will be right there to take maximum advantage of it.
That's why Trudeau is staying. He expects an American DemonSeedTM agenda coming down the pike and in his mind, that will be enough to reverse the current polling trend and return Trudeau and his party to power in the next election.
