Yesterday I wrote about how the failing Con clown Andrew Scheer has announced that he intends to go after the Con media.
For believe it or not, being too LIBERAL.
And I suggested that the real reason is that his polls are tanking.
Well now Scheer is going after Justin Trudeau. Again.
And those same polls make his claim that Canadians all over the country are clamouring for him to defeat Trudeau, also look ridiculous.
But then all you need to do is check out the look on his face to see that Scheer is desperate.
And the question is what kind of a clown is he becoming?
For as even the dilapidated old Trudeau basher Michael Harris points out, Scheer's claims that the media is biased against him is absurd.
Sounding like a spoiled brat rather than a political strategist, Scheer whined that everyone is in the prime minister’s pocket — media, pundits, academics.
Apparently he doesn’t read the National Post, the Toronto Sun, Maclean’s, or peruse the reports of the Fraser Institute. There is fawning aplenty for the Conservative cause in this country.
And his timing couldn't be worse.
His timing is a political abomination. Choosing to mimic Donald Trump’s war with the U.S. media in Canada, and to do it in the immediate wake of what CNN described as 72 hours of “American hate,” shows why Scheer should never be prime minister.
But unlike Harris who seems mostly concerned with the bruised feelings of our shabby Con media, I am more concerned about the never-ending hatred Scheer is aiming at Justin Trudeau.
And wonder whether Scheer is becoming a far more sinister kind of clown...
One who is deliberately stirring up the many deranged Trudeau haters in this country to pleasure his inner monster.
Even though he should know that no prime minister has ever had so many violent threats directed against him.
And by constantly making it sound like Trudeau is a dire threat to Canadians and must be urgently removed from office, Scheer is becoming a real threat to him, this country, and its values.
And he is the one who should be removed from his job as Con leader as soon as is humanly possible.
And if necessary confined to a mental institution.
Where he can do no more harm to himself or others.
For he is indeed unfit to be prime minister.
He is slowly poisoning this country.
And if he is not stopped, he will take this country to a very dark place...
Trying to blow out someone's candle makes you look desperate!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathleen...that’s a great metaphor. Scheer has done absolutely nothing since becoming Con leader, except try to blow out Justin Trudeau’s candle. He stands for nothing except hate, and trust me he’s desperate...
DeleteI wish the media would write up how the Cons have a former Rebel boss as their campaign manager. Where do they think all this hate is coming from, and the Cons need to be exposed before they cause some tragedy.
ReplyDeleteOr that the Fraser Institute is a Koch-funded bullshit factory, and Ezra himself is a product of Koch sleepaway camp, where he literally wrote the book on using the then-nascent WWW to cultivate a 21st-century Hitler Youth movement. It's all there on Wikipedia, yet the media drops the ball in informing the public front-and-center. Why not publish excerpts from Ezra's book and connect it to Marshall's Analytica operation? They were so up in arms about selfies with that Atwal guy, where's all the reports about Scheer's "friendly chats" with Faith Goldy? Why hasn't "W5" done an in-depth exposé of the Rebel-Sun-Postmedia connection, or what Rebel's "personalities" are "up to" as of late (Gavin McInnes, hipster-Nazi gang leader; Lauren Southern, refugee-boat saboteur in Europe) and furthermore its history of underwriting by dark money from the likes of the Koch network and the Mercers?
DeleteIf they can "just ask questions" and JAQ off into Trudeau's socks ad nauseam, then they certainly have enough time on their hands to do real reporting on things that matter. Instead of leaving it "up to the viewer to do their homework." #YouHadOneJob
Hi anon ....I agree with you, the media does need to investigate where Andrew Scheer’s disgusting campaign is soming from, and the best way to start that investigation is by questioning Hamish Marshall, Scheer’s campaign manager. He once ran the Rebel with Ezra Levant, and should never have been allowed to be such a powerful member of a Canadian opposition party. If the Con campaign is becoming uglier and more American you can blame him and his team of Trumplings...
DeleteHi Jackie...I share your frustration. Our shabby media should have investigated the Con’s Rebel roots long ago. The Rebel types are an utterly disgusting group of right-wing extremists and they threaten this country and it’s values. It’s disgraceful that the American media and the UK media have written more stories about Gavin McInnes and his proud boy mafia than have any of our so-called journalists. As a result many Canadians have no idea about the activities of those extremists, and they are now a threat i’ll Have a full report as soon as we are better organized...
DeleteScheer is a nut case. He says the media is biased against him, and then he says that Justin Trudeau must be urgently removed. He is trying to play Trump in Canada and that could cause the same kind of violence we are witnessing in the United States. How hard is it to understand that?
ReplyDeleteHi anon...Indon’t know whether Scheer is suffering from some mental illness or not. But what I believe is that that his h extreme right wing views are a threat to the country we live in. He is sounding like Trump himself, and we need to make it clear to him that threatening the media will not be tolerated in this country, before something horrible happens....
DeleteScheer should count himself as lucky that the Con media hasn't called him out on the countless occasions he and his ilk have told flat out lies re: JT or their ridiculously out of context statements attributed to him.
ReplyDeleteWhatever Schmear's plan is by bashing the media or as I see it, biting the hands that feed him, will not work for we are not the degenerate section of a country called Trump's America.
Would Trump ever bash Fox News? Most certainly not, so what does Andy expect his Con media will do now? Grovel at his feet, ignore him completely, or give him the attention he so rightfully deserves?
JD
Hi JD...yes, it’s too bad that the excellent Daniel Dale has been taking stock of Trump, but nobody is counting up Scheer’s many lies. Just his lies alone should have disqualified him from running for office..But as I told Jackiemmmmm we are working to setup a group that can take a much harder line and try to make up for what the media Is failing to do....
DeleteIf anything the media is outright praising fascists like Bolsonaro for how slashing the rainforest might be "good for business." Note also that Bolsonaro's first move was to raid universities for "political propaganda" denouncing fascism; Ford has already cancelled several university expansion programs, and Scheer has promised to, at minimum, "defund" universities that don't allow right-wing hatred any oxygen on campus. I'm sure if he could, he'd put Jordan Peterson in as Education Minister. Anyone defending Bolsonaro ought to be outright condemned as an apologist for fascism. But it's not a great leap to compare him to thugs like Ford and Scheer.
ReplyDeleteDaniel Dale among other decent Canadian journalists are calling out the CBC guy, Chris Arsenault ("arse and all"?), who's doubling down on defending his article, instead of acknowledging what a bigly oops he just made (and that's the understatement of the century). But I guess that means Daniel Dale et. al. are partisan, Liberal shills and Trudeau groupies who have the nerve to say that dark-triad totalitarians who want to destroy the environment and persecute -- even execute -- gay people are, you know, bad.
Scheer is playing with fire, and as that CBC report indicates he doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about if he seriously thinks the media is intolerant of intolerance. But he's so obsessed with lying and cheating his way to power and avenging his Sith master against the young Jedi, that he'd give a meaningless shrug and "thoughts and prayers" if a stochastic terror attack did cause serious harm (or worse) to Justin Trudeau and/or members of his family. The fact that even the Trudeau children are subject to these virulent threats and bullying messages is all you need to know about what kind of a campaign this babaca is already running, and what kind of a "leader" he'd be. I have European-Portuguese heritage and speak the language passably. Harper, the iron-fisted economist and stealth theocrat, reminds me quite a bit of António Salazar. Andrew Scheer, like Jair Bolsonaro, is a "boy from Brazil"... and a nut!
Hi Jackie...I can’t wait to write something about Brazil. My father was posted there for three years, and I used to love going down to visit them in São Paulo, and then head down to Rio for a couple of days. So when I saw that CBC story I almost broke my rule of not trolling anyone. It’s a real tragedy, Bolsonaro is an absolute fascist, and I fear for the LGBT community, women, and others who live in that beautiful country, as well as the awesome Amazon jungle. And the idea that the fascists have conquered yet another country is profoundly disheartening. But all the more reason to fight our own would be fascist Scheer, who would turn off the lights in this country. I’m really beat, I have so many things to do and no time to do them, but at least I feel vindicated. I knew Scheer was rotten and he is every bit as bad as I always thought he was...
DeleteApparently the Harper government used Sharia Law to prevent adoptions of orphans from Muslim countries. I wonder how Scheer will answer that one.

Hi UU...thanks for bringing that story to my attention. I had no idea such an appalling thing was going on. But I’m sure Scheer would be delighted, and if he ever became prime minister would invoke Scheeria law to make sure that only Christian babies could be adopted...✝️
DeletePerhaps you are right Simon and the biased media ploy is a panic attack designed to preempt Max. On the other hand it could be a market analysis to see how it resonates with the various groups on social media and how to teak it for maximum effect. Scheers puppet masters are all about big data and voter motivation psychology but of necessity have to keep actual policy hidden. The only chance they have is emotional distraction rather than debate detailed policy and only the media can provide the distraction.
ReplyDeleteThe difference between US and Canadian media is striking. Harper started to politicize the media but all of that changed when the Liberals came to power. Perhaps my count is off but since then we have had four mass murders but none have been turned into political events to the extent they would have been in the US. The propaganda is there but it has to be dug up on social media and garbage rags kike the Rebel. Perhaps this is the bias Andy refers to... despite best efforts extreme media polarization has not gone mainstream where the ranting can inflict maximum political damage as well as rewards. It would be nice to think it is voluntary but suspect its more complex than that. Hopefully the government will get the electoral reform bill C 76 out before the next election cycle as puppet Andy seems desperate to fully weaponize the MSM or drive people away from it before the next election.
RT
Hi RT...It could be all those things you mention, since Hamish Marshall and his twisted elves have taken data mining to new and Orwellian lengths. But I’m sticking to my Bernier theory until proved wrong. According to the latest poll I’ve seen Bernier is starting to register in the 2% range. If that continues the Cons will be facing an extinction event, so that would explain why they are in panic mode. God bless Scheer, go Max go...🏂
DeleteScheer needs a few new lines. The ones he is using just aren't working. I Mmy be pissed with Trudeau currently for not calling a bi election so Singh can run for the seat in Burnaby so he can get into Parliament, but that has nothing to do with the media.
ReplyDeleteScheer just needs to blame some one or rather his handlers need to blame some one, so its the media. Well the media is fairly Con friendly in Canada so Scheer might want to ask himself, if he is the problem. That he, Scheer, is not connecting with the voters.
As to having Trudeau removed, Scheer needs to understand, that takes a federal election, and my bet is, after the federal election, Trudeau will still be P.M. Scheer just isn't P.M. material. Scheer may have 5 kids to support, but the Conservative Party needs a new leader, one which can better represent its members. Scheer needs to go, not Trudeau.
Hi e.a.f...I think that Scheer is now so desperate he’ll say anything or do anything to become more popular. I also think he’s more than aware that Doug Ford is ready to go for his job should he falter. And that’s enough to panic anyone...🐷
Deletecant wait for weak andy to claim Canada is weak and needs the F35.
ReplyDeleteHi Steve...well I see the Trudeau government is also looking at the F35. I keep telling them that autonomous robot aircraft are the future but they don’t listen to me...🛸
DeleteThe F35 is job one for Trump. His main job is to sell US energy and weapons. The ironic thing is that the F35 is likely the biggest white elephant in history.
Delete(I believe) A couple of little loopholes in the F35 purchase. Lockheed Martin does not have to do economic offsets in Canada. Also the maintenance of this high maintenance princess has to be done in the USA
