A Sucker Punch From Your Neighbour/Friend?

[Vettenut]

I've taken a liking to Dougie for standing up to DJT so far. Better than JT but any Prime Minister probably has to be a bit more diplomatic.
Just when I read that Dougie is promising to dig a hole under the 401 to bury tax payer dollars I say he's just another politician with grandiose projects to catch some news time

You know .... sometimes you might get blindsided into liking CS dougie .... but he is corrupt to the core .... our options in this upcoming election are farts in the wind, vomit and dog piss .... ( assign each of the front runners the moniker of your choice )
Standing up to Trump ? I dont think so ... hes just putting on some kind of show to try to make himself look like a hero and Trump is just laughing in his face ...
As for digging a 65 km tunnel under the 401 that will cost a gazillion dollars and take 50 years to complete ? The motives there are obvious ... contracts , contracts , contracts that are accompanied by big fat ( like himself ) envelopes for many years to come
Ford is a moron ... all of his arguments could easily come out of the mouth of a 5th grader...
Moron yes but not when it comes to defrauding the people of Ontario and enriching himself and his friends ...

Not a Trudeau/Liberal fan by any means but the jacket Pierre was wearing when talking about Carney’s shoes was also $2,000+. You going to bring that up or is it another hoax?

Ha ! Neither are as nice as Jagmeat’s Rolex , lol. So what . They have some money. So do a lot of other people. Not sure what you’re referring to “ hoax “ .

How the hell do you even pronounce that number ? ...

Just vote for pig %^%# Ford ... he always gives out free hotdogs .... problem solved

Poll yesterday shows your guy Doug has approximately 50% support in the province. Looks to be a shoe in. Perhaps it’s a case of better the devil you know than the unknown.

Off topic guys & gals.
Its the idiot down south who wants to take us over no doubt for his benefit.
I've never seen such a bunch of well (maybe not) educated idiots.
One now has apparently tabled a bill to rename Greenland to Red, White and Blueland.
Lord love of God. Even I can't make up this kind of lunacy.
MTG has gone quite on the Dems scheming to pummel the "red" states with hurricanes to punish them. She hasn't said a word about it being the wrath of God coming down on DJT now that he is in office. Can't quite see how people can vote for them.
Our lot of politicains up here are quite tame compared to them.
Give to the Danes to push back a little fun at DJT offering to buy California. After all DJT has no use for them either.

Hopefully saner heads will prevail and The Orange Menace will be substantially neutered in the midterms in two years. If he hasn’t pulled a coup before then…..it’s difficult to ascertain just how dangerous he really is.

President Trump was elected by a mandate, if not a landslide. He is trampling out the liberal corruption of the recent past. He is revamping wasteful spending, with the help of Elon Musk. He is eliminating woke and dei policy. He is ending wars in the middle east and Ukraine, and repatriating hostages. He is returning prisoners from Russia. He is talking to the people of the United States and the media almost every day. He is closing our borders to illegal immigrants, and deporting the illegals who entered during the obama and biden years. If you prefer biden, then you are retarded.
I just joined this forum 10 minutes ago, and the second thing I read is you running down our president. The first thing I read was the forum rules. The first rule is to be respectful. I'm sure you are a great person, but your attitude is not appreciated by me, and I'm not going to read it without speaking up. Now I hope to find some good Corvette substance.

This is an off topic thread. There is a wealth of Corvette discussion on the forum, the majority actually. Welcome to the forum. As for your president just take a moment and look at what he is doing and proposing to do related to Canada . Not cool. I am actually in favour of quite a few things he is doing but not when it comes to serious threats to your largest trading partner and closest ally. If implemented this could cause untold damage to both the Canadian economy and to individual Canadians. That is where I draw the line.

If you like trump you are not welcome in Canada! There is a U.S. female police officer with brain damage suffered in the riots in your capital and your president pardoned the clown who did that to her. You tell me why that is good? Trump is a bastard and I'm being nice.

Plenty of good Vette business here.
Guess you get riled up when we point out what an idiot DJT is. He is in it for himself to line his pockets. DJT jr was over in Israel last year checking out the beachfront to make sure that the Trump corporation would have first dibs on the land. What was it he said before the election? No more wars but we'll send in the troops to Panama. Doesn't want to send in the troops to Palestine when Nety will do the job for him. DJT jr just has to walk in then to develope the stolen land.
Have you ever noticed that DJT can do no wrong. It is always someone else's fault, Up to now Biden and Obama are his scape goats. The chickens are starting to come home to roost now. Egg prices are up. inflation is up. I believe he said that from day one the price of eggs and inflation were coming down. WELL!
Without wanting to rile you too much, read how Hitler came to power from the 1920's. Errily similar to what DJT is trying to do. Hopefully a few republicans will realize how they are getting duped by him. Bet you he will try for term three in four years or anoint DJT jr for a Trump dynasty.
When you get people saying he was chosen by God to be president something is wrong in their heads
Did Biden weaponize the DOJ? Not proven but DJT sure is doing it.
It's your country. The populace voted him in. You get to live with it now
When he is finished the reputation of the USA will be much diminished. It already is. But he couldn't care less.

You mention Elon ... Head of DOGE ... richest man on planet earth ... well on his way to becoming the first person with a personal net worth of a Trillion dollars
What the %**& is he doing getting mixed up in politics ... love of country ? Compassion for his fellow man ? Applying all he has learned through his business dealings to straighten out the good old USA ? All out of the goodness of his heart ... yeah ... ok

And if you believe that ... I have some swamp land ... well you know

Someone much wiser than me once asked a very interesting question ....

Why would a multi millionaire spend a million dollars to get elected as mayor with a salary of 100 000 per year ... things that make you go hmmmmmmmmm.....

 

[Murray20c8]

I have to say. I'm part Ukrainian. My Grandfather and Grandmother on my father's side escaped Russia. Now Trump is sucking Putins ... ego and is working with him to give Ukrainian lands to Russia! Without even talking to the Ukrainian President! Tell me Trump is good?

Hey Rich. Like they said, this is an off-topic forum section. Do we like Trump? Do we like or dislike Biden or Obama? I think we don't really give two $hits about your presidents either way. What we don't like is what Trump is proposing and already started to do to our Country. He is trying to bankrupt Canada so he can waltz in and take over and turn us into your 51st state. Yes. He had a mandate to turn your economy around but the way he is doing it not only will decimate our economy but that of many other nations. I'm pretty sure if Canada, or Mexico or Russia or China or any other country tried to bankrupt and then take over the US that you would feel the same way we do. And by the way Trump won by 1.6% of the popular vote. Seats, yes but certainly not a landside of your population. We will see how this all plays out in the end.
So. That being said, there is also a wealth of Corvette information and knowledgeable members here on the forum and many sections dedicated to discussing cars instead of politics.

This is the what we are living with. The radical right blame the radical left and back and forth.
These radical groups are petty, and only see every petty faults of the opposite. They think of their leader as an angel, massiah, the perfect human. They lost the ability to judge things in a unbiased manner.
I and most of us I think has a red line of unacceptable behavior when judging another person. Trump charater/value is one that is unacceptable to me as a person. Someone that I don't want to be associate with or should represent my value to be a leader of a country.
I am consider myself as an "independent". Pence and Hailey has a much more desirable charater then the 47.
I love Canada. I am greatful and respect the Canadian culture as a first generation immigrant. I am so glad that my parents choose Canada as their new home rather then USA more then 40 years ago.

Easy answer.... He is bored and power hungry and the opportunity to climb into bed with Trump and in effect run the USA was too enticing to walk away from. I'm pretty sure he's also collecting a very healthy pile of pocket money.

At the expense of others I might add. Slashing jobs with a hedge trimmer!

Could be because his net worth has dropped to 390 billion from 486 billion, lol . It’s all about the attention and power as you suggest. Say what you want about Musk , he is weird but undeniably brilliant. Hollywood couldn’t come up with a better soap opera than what is unfolding south of the border. Bizarre to say the least.

It is bizarre but unfortunately, unlike a soap opera, it's hard to just ignore it.

I personally like Trump, I don’t like his views on tariffs on Canada, but will he go through with them.
I’m Canadian and will stay in Canada, even if you don’t like it, I’m allowed my opinions and you are allowed yours, for someone that has Staff Member on your profile, your not being respectfully of other people’s opinions or other people’s political views.
