OT, but you should have seen Canada’s Globe and Mail do their endorsement last federal election. Our incumbent Prime Minister was Stephen Harper, a control freak who had the entire party muzzled, who pushed out all dissenters, who tried to import Republican style politics and policies, who tightly controlled media access, and rebranded “The Government of Canada” as “The Harper Government” (no joke). The Globe endorsed the Conservative party but not Harper despite the fact that after 10 years of Harper everyone who wasn’t just a Harper sock puppet had already left the party (there was a slew of high profile minister resignations in the year or two before the election). Basically they said, “Go vote for a magical unicorn we’re fantasizing about.”
Canadians were torn between believing the the Globe editorial board was forced to endorse the conservatives by their corporate masters and believing that the chief editor is just an unreal idiot.
My favorite part is her comparison of Trump to the Nothing, especially given the chosen incarnation of this site’s moderator extraordinaire…
“Remember The Nothing? It was a gigantic, black storm from “The Neverending Story” that fed on fear and doubt and sadness and hate and uncertainty... and didn’t stop until everything was gone. That is what Trump feels like to me.”
