We already knew that Donald Trump was a bloated demagogue who acts like a spoiled and cruel child, and likes to hurt and humiliate others.
We knew he's a bully, a bigot, a crass misogynist, a serial liar, a rabid climate change denier, a friend of dictators, and the last person we need anywhere near the nuclear button.
But now he's finally shown us beyond a shadow of a doubt, why he is unfit to be the President of the most powerful nation on earth.
In my last post I looked at how Donald Trump's visceral misogyny and disgusting fat-shaming could cost him the election.
Along with his racism, his xenophobia, and his dangerous demagoguery.
But what makes him such a monster is one character flaw that stands out above all the others.
It was the final exchange in a 90-minute debate, but it may be the one that will destroy Donald Trump's chances of getting anywhere near the White House.
For when Hillary Clinton brought up the story of the one-time Miss Universe Alicia Machado, and how Trump had treated her.
And all he could say was "where did you find this, where did you find this?"
It was a carefully laid trap.
Although Donald Trump used to sleep with a copy of Hitler's speeches on his bedside table, I've tried to avoid comparing him to the Nazi dictator.
For whatever he is Trump isn't Hitler, and to suggest he is only insults that murderous maniac's many victims.
But after reading a review of a new book about Hitler's rise to power, I must admit I might have to reconsider that position.
I'm glad to see that another poll is suggesting that most Americans believe Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump in their first debate.
A new Reuters/Ipsos poll finds that a majority of Americans believe Hillary Clinton won the first presidential debate on Monday.
The poll found that, out of 2,000 responders, 56 percent thought the Democratic nominee won the debate, as opposed to 26 percent who said the same about Republican Donald Trump.
But while Clinton did perform well, and did at the very least halt Trump's momentum..
She did make one very big mistake.
As if the Con leadership race wasn't bizarre or pathetic enough.
With Kellie Leitch trying to stir up hatred against refugees and immigrants.
And Brad Trost trying to stir up hatred against gay Canadians.
Now another Con fanatic is joining the race.
Anyone who watched the Donald Trump Hillary Clinton debate knows who won.
And it wasn't the Annoying Orange.
But don't tell that to the bloated demagogue, because he simply can't accept reality.
And spent the day after his humiliating defeat claiming victory.
I must admit I was a bit worried, deeply concerned, a nervous wreck before last night's debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
The bloated demagogue has been enjoying some momentum. Polls suggest the race is now a dead heat.
And with just six weeks to go before the election, it was a critical moment.
But it turns out I shouldn't have worried, because Clinton left Trump looking like a big baby.
I wasn't planning to write another post about Kellie Leitch for a while, because I feel I've written enough about her to last me a lifetime.
But then I saw the cover of the latest issue of Macleans and I changed my mind.
Because although that picture is absolutely ridiculous, and has people howling with laughter all over the country.
And wondering where did she get that flag pole from?
The ghastly show is finally over. After a shabby twenty year run on Parliament Hill Jason Kenney has packed up his harp, and finally left the building.
But not before one last tawdry song.
Jason Kenney delivered a rousing and emotional farewell speech in the House of Commons on Thursday after nearly 20 years as a member of Parliament.
He struck a non-partisan tone and urged his colleagues to embrace their role as legislators, not simply as foot soldiers of a political party, and to relish their time in the hallowed halls of Centre Block — "the temple of our democracy," as he described it.
Which couldn't have been more phony or absurd. Kenney the ultimate rabid partisan preaching non partisanship in the "temple of democracy" he desecrated over and over again.
And that wasn't the only scandal...
