Last night’s results of the Canadian federal election was eye-opening, to say the least.
I say this as a disinterested observer, as if I’m watching the Super Bowl with my team not playing in it. I’m just putting on my amateur political punditry hat. This race was Pierre Poilievre’s to lose.
Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
The only reason I’m not surprised is because I saw one of the major factors that preceded his election loss; his attempt to get as much of the voting bloc by attacking President Donald Trump’s twitter eccentricities instead of trying to find common ground to strengthen the entire spectrum of his political base. Poilievre could have simply left it all alone and campaigned solely against the Liberal Party’s misgivings. Instead, he inexplicably opened up a second battlefront with President Donald Trump’s statehood bombast and ultimately alienated the crucial independent voters that may have leaned center right.
He obviously did not observe the seismic developments in France, Great Britain and Germany.
Anyway, this may sound strange but…..
I expect that kind of existential fumble, that kind of head scratching mistake…
…from myself LOL
So, to see someone else make a mistake of that caliber and a mistake on a stage where the stakes are so high….it, it makes me feel better about me. 😂
I think to myself, “you know Michael Williams <and yes, I refer to myself by my full name>, maybe your decision making skills aren’t all that bad. Maybe you are more aware than you think. Maybe the lesson here is…that you should be less harsh and demanding of yourself.“
