Why Did Trump Suddenly Stop Attacking Canada?
Manage episode 477581075 series 3085725
We've been witnessing something really strange over the last three weeks. Trump has been ... silent. OK, only about one thing, but even so. He's been wholly quiet on the subject of Canada, and his previous expressed desire that it should become the 51st state of the USA. The silence can mean only one thing - he actually really does understand how much he blew it with Canada - turning an entire nation against him and making it highly unlikely he will ever achieve his goals. The Canadian federal election is in full swing - and Trump's effect is everywhere, even if his voice is absent. But the big question is - will his silence kick in before election day to undo the impact he has had so far on voting intentions? Pierre Poilièvre is certainly hoping so. Let's discuss.
