I agree with most of what he says. Versus the 'bought and paid for' Canadian MSM, he is a contrarian, NOT simply regurgitating what True-dolt and the gubmint feed them.
For me, the 'money' comment is the last few sentences, well worth repeating!
'Has Trudeau ever been right about any of his abiding passions?'
'And he’s wrong about this one too.'
Zelenskyy and True-dolt. Two WEF pawns, both failed actors, both playing the roles of 'leaders'. Pathetic, yet we are sleepwalking into a nuclear war. Who will win? PRC! They sit back on the side lines while NATO and Russia nuke each other, destroying their ability to defend themselves.
Putin’s clearly a psychopath...but he’s a psychopath with nukes,oil and now allies. The emerging friendship between Russia and China is very,very,very,*very* bad news for the civilized world.
It Putin ever goes nuclear, it will have nothing to do with that pissant.
Trudeau is a turd, but he’s an insignificant and useless turd who’s standing on the world stage is so low that nobody even considers him, nor his opinion on any world matter of any significance.
I believe his job before becoming Prime Minister was working as a part time Primary school drama teacher... Would anybody including Putin consider his opinion, or actions worth paying attention to?
I think not.
” Has Trudeau ever been right about any of his abiding passions?”

No he’s been on the opposite side of everything I and other conservatives support. Which begs the question: why does anyone on FR who claims to be conservative support this proxy war? They are all aligning themselves with the enemies of conservatism.
The World needs Trump to sort this Ukrainian thing out.
“But 90 seconds is closer than it’s ever been.”
Anyone who thinks we are actually closer to nuclear armageddon than we were during the Cuban Missile Crisis or other touchy spots during the cold war is not someone worth listening to.
“Which begs the question: why does anyone on FR who claims to be conservative support this proxy war? They are all aligning themselves with the enemies of conservatism.”
Maybe because some of us don’t base our opinions on the foolishly simplistic premise that we must reflexively take the opposite position of people we disagree with. Some of us base our opinions on a critical assessment of the facts, without regard to what position anyone else is taking.
[marching us all down the road to Armageddon.]
Technically, World War III or World War IV.
Armageddon will happen at the end of the 7 years of ‘Peace and Security’. And that will be quickly ended by the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
However, the author still makes a valid point.
No, you shouldn’t reflexively take the opposite version. However, when the entire pantheon of leftism is on your side, you should take pause. On your side there is Trudeau, macaron, Merkel, Biden, Hillary, Obama, Schumer, Nadler, Boris Johnson, the vindman brothers, Victoria Nuland, the woke DOD, the entire MSM, all of academia, CNN, New York Times, Mark Zuckerberg, Sean Penn, Abramovich the spirit cooking woman, Schwab, the WEF, all of Hollywood. Etc. The list is endless. Every single woke, pussy hat wearing, BLM supporting person on earth is all in for Ukraine.
If one leftist says something that you happen to agree with, no, you shouldn’t reflexively take the opposite position. However, when the entire Greek chorus of leftism is 100% in lockstep with you, it’s probably you in the wrong.
Or did all of them suddenly become champions of freedom? Don’t be a simpleton.
“Zelenskyy and True-dolt. Two WEF pawns”
Bump
Well he’s right but there is going to be nuclear war standoff ginned up by the deep state actors. We all know who the players are. They are going to scare everybody to death and then back down. This has been in the works for awhile.
The phrase is *slouching* towatds armageddon!
“However, when the entire pantheon of leftism is on your side, you should take pause.”
Nah, that’s the opposite of critical thinking. If you have reasoned properly, it doesn’t matter at all who agrees with your who disagrees with you, or how popular or unpopular your opinion is. If everyone on the left says “the sky is blue”, I am not going to question my own assessment of the sky’s color one bit.
“Don’t be a simpleton.”
Simpletons are the ones who pay attention to what others think before deciding their own opinion.
“why does anyone on FR who claims to be conservative support this proxy war?”
Reasons I can see:
(1) Cold War Boomers— They hate Russia. They’ll hate Russia until they die. Like the WWII vets that hated Japan, the WWI vets that hated Germany, the Civil War vets that hated the Yanks/Rebs, the Revolutionary War Vets that hated the Tories...
(2) Their mail-order bride or online girl friend is Ukrainian.
(3) They or their family is ethnic Ukrainian
(4) They are invested in the military-industrial-complex and their earnings are up (to help compensate for the utter destruction the Biden regime is causing the rest of the economy).
(5) They are shills. Either paid for by the DC regime, a NATO government, or the regime in Ukraine.
(6) Expats. I’ve noticed that quite a few prominent Uke war fans don’t live in America. They are more concerned about some foreign entanglement than the invasion across our southern border. Why? Well, because they don’t live in America and are detached from what actual, REAL Americans (vs citizens of the world) are concerned about.
I can sympathize with 1-4. I can even understand 5 (everyone needs a job, and if the poster is Ukrainian, it might be the only way to avoid being sent to the front).
The expats (6) are the contemptible ones. They are the arrogant jerks who like to talk down to those who don’t support the war. We aren’t as well traveled and sophisticated to understand and it’s beneath them to expain it to the uncouth and vulgar. These are the globalist pricks.
What is more conservative than using up an inventory of old munitions to kill your enemy…but someone else will do it for you?
That’s about as capitalist as you get.
Obviously, you do not understand how the bought and paid for Canadian MSM actually DO MARCH to whatever True-dolt says. In addition, you don’t understand that True-dolt asks, “How high?” and “May I lick your boots some more?” when his mentor, ‘der Führer und Reichskanzler’ K(louse) Squab says, “Jump!”
Yep, I’m sure the phrase is ‘slouching towards Armageddon’ however, True-dolt IS marching the ‘stupids’ that voted him in (and the rest of us), towards Armageddon!
Yup I think you are correct on all counts.
I meant no offense toward you. My post was a gut reaction and a result of some long-unused synapses firing.
I know full well who Justine is. He’s the “male” Jacinda Ardern. In blackface.
