Legions? A poll done before the election showed only 1 in 6 Canadians (18%) supported Trump. It's not like half the voters in Canada would have voted for him, is it? He would never have made it out of the primaries up here.

The focus on Trump and the histrionics around him are truly getting old. Yes, he's largely incompetent and reactionary, but what has he done, for example, that Harper hadn't done before him? Harper spread the Military Ombudsman's personal health details around the government to smear him, defunded and destaffed the CBO office he himself created, abused protocol like prorogues and committee bylaws to avoid scrutiny and delay, had underlings interfere with foreign elections, and leveraged government powers to interfere with his foes.

Was he a despot or a dictator ... or just a guy that thinks the PM's chair is the most powerful one in the land, and intends to use it to its full potential?
