Doug Ford politics. It's what he knows.

Kind of reminds me of the time he held a campaign rally as a candidate for city council, then once it was over, stood at the door with a huge wad of $20's handing them out to the attendees while asking for their votes as they left.

He's just bumblefucked his way up to doing that on a much larger scale now, and with tax dollars instead of his own.

A good friend of mine ran against him in that city election. But he didn't have access to bribe money.

What is this guy's constituency, exactly?

Wasn't he despised at home in Quebec by the time his run as Premier came to an end?

He'd win a general election sooner than Poilievre ever would. But as previously discussed, the kind of candidate who could win an election would never win the CPC leadership and any candidate who could win the leadership would be ballot box poison in a general election.
 
Don't get too comfy about "ballot box poison" and how nutters can never win. Trump won, and then after 4 years of showing how incompetent, dimwitted and corrupt he is, after botching a pandemic response and getting impeached for corruption, went on to get ... (checks notes) .. 71 MILLION VOTES.

The virus is spreading here too, especially out west. And that's trumpism, not covid.

I'd be considerably less surprised if he won again in 2024 than I was in 2016. All of this stuff with covid has revealed exactly how stupid America is. And the Democrats are doomed because they don't understand that their opponent only wants control, and preferably permanent control, not to compromise or make a deal on anything.
