No, we do NOT!

No sane person wants a Trump.

Seeing Trumpism up close from the outside is really the cure to that style of politics.

readingman.bsky.social•21 days ago

Although you do have to factor in that a lot Canadians were just kinda tired of JT. Ready for a boring technocrat to run things. It's probably 50/50 on what moved opinion

We thought so, too---watch out for Elon's tricks.

Oh Canada,🇨🇦 you are sane people!🫰🏼

Oh dear lord, do they have the 2-party system too?

If only half of us Americans had any sense.

For US audience, any insight into the difference between projections there? 338 seems to have made much more of a jump than CBC for example, which still has Conservatives favored for more seats but not an outright majority (159 vs. 142 for liberals, 172 needed for majority)

nice to see prospective voters rally around an actual person. In the US it seems like any selected individual underperforms against the "generic" candidate of their own party

How nice that they aren’t experiential learners but a good cautionary tale is enough for them. I ❤️ Canada

Proof the universe can only have one Sith Lord.

WOW!

If anything good comes from this - it might show everyone else the fallacy of going down this road.

We get to be a warning.

juandefuca.bsky.social•21 days ago

a paperboy version of Trump at that.

Can't blame them

Well, at least we're helping the rest of the world by being a lesson in what not to do.

I believe that effect is limited to countries specifically threatened by Trump, elsewhere in the West there is no sign of the far-right losing support due to association with Trump.

Generally conservatives only care about an issue when it affects them personally.

Hungary. Take heart.
