  1. Calling Trudeau a far-left extremist makes you a far-right extremist, I'm afraid. Are you comfortable with that label?

  2. You haven't heard about the tariffs? Keep up with the news.

  3.  @maverick7291  Uh, I'm centre right in my political outlook, but I realise that if you're on the extreme right yourself, pretty much everyone is politically to the left of you. OK, you have to be a bit self-centred, too, but I think you qualify. To be honest, I don't see much of the far left these days. Are you sure you would even recognise a communist if you stumbled on one? Your lack of perspective suggests you're too young for that. I travelled to the USSR when it was at its lowest ebb. Never seen such drabness. You should at least try to read about it, so you can put things into perspective. And don't upvote your own comments -- we've talked about this.

  4. OK, Neville Chamberlain.

  5.  @jordyb57  What has changed exactly, Mr. Ad Hominem? We're all ears.

  6.  @maverick7291  Punctuation -- and some sense -- wouldn't go amiss in your replies. Can you try again?

  7. You must have an authoritarian streak. It would seem the Canadians prefer a full democracy, which they have, too, according to the Democracy Index. It's no coincidence that Trump and his ilk have downgraded the US to a flawed democracy.

  8. Trump thinks that trade wars with neighbours to the north, south, east and west benefit Murica. Go figure.

  9. Putin must be pleased. Soon, there's a likeminded imperialist in the White House. Perhaps not quite as an incompetent one, but still.

  10.  @maverick7291  For starters, far-righties are those who shout themselves hoarse that everyone else is far left. You and the OP are cases in point. Over and out.

  11.  @wysiwyg1  Nope, I recognise Marxism when I see it. They made me plow through arid acres of the ideology when did my master's in political science. And again when I did my master's in history. It's great that it's consigned to history.

  12. International popularity and domestic popularity don't necessarily go hand in hand. Trump is a case in point.
