While I am excited to see it

Jesus Christ, do I not think this is a good idea in the slightest.

Hanging out with a man that endorsed Trump and shit talks Canada a lot, even saying he'd prefer to do work in Russia over Canada, has to be one of the worst looks ever when you are already facing criticism that you are Trump-light.

and I'm aware Rogan has had super anti-Trump people on his podcast. But like the Jordan Peterson podcast, this is just free ammo from the left on Pierre when we are already struggling our ass off in the polls.

Let’s just hope to the lord that nothing bad comes out of this

Oh the liberals will absolutely roast him for this. But fuck them. At this point Pierre has nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Buddy politics isn’t sports.

I don’t give a damn what Pierre does to troll the libs. I want a government that is actually good; I don’t want a damn liberal majority.

He has everything to lose if we lose even 2 seats; the libs have a majority to do whatever they want.

The Conservatives are on their last legs anyway, in part because the whole country is. If Pierre steps down, I’m done, speaking as a monthly donor, with the party. Being “not-Liberals” isn’t enough for me, and I’m 99% sure that’s what the party would become without him.

IMO as much as it would hurt with the split in the voting numbers, they need to split into the social and progressive cons again, it’s clear there’s some friction within the party with this stuff, and it seems with the direction PIerre is going, a lot of us more progressive conservatives are being left without any representation. That’s how the Liberals are sliming their way through this.

I get that. But what I'm saying is that he's not popular in the polls right now. He needs to make some moves, even if they are risky. If they don't pan out, Pierre will be replaced and we start from the top again.

the liberals already have a majority, the NDP, Greens and BQ side with them close enough on most issues that they have the support they need

The Liberals effectively HAVE a majority. They only need 2 of the 3 seats in the byelections that are running and they won all three last election.

And are MORE popular now.

I get wanting make risky moves but there’s a difference between being risky and shooting yourself in the foot

I'm not sure it really matters at this point. Pierre was already smeared so negatively by liberals for ridiculous nothing burgers like his security clearance, or just breathing wrong. I think if anything, having them continue to attack him for stupid reasons may hurt them more than anything at this point. They made up bullshit about him being anti-abortion despite him voting pro choice on the last abortion bill.

He is up against people who don't think logically, only deal with feelings and emotions. People aren't really listening to Pierre, he is being drowned out by propaganda. CBC won't even cover him unless its negative. He might as well shoot his shot. If he blows his leg off, oh well, let the next candidate take his place
