Jagmeet Singh is a complete putz. He's the weakling opposition to Justin Trudeau's minority government, but he's also the one of the most incompetent people in Canada. It's hard to be a federal NDP supporter when your party is led by someone who's as crushingly stupid as Jagmeet Singh.

00:00:00.000 So I'm just making this quick little video here to state the absolute obvious. Jagmeet Singh is a complete putz. It must be so difficult to be a federal NDP supporter these days, knowing that your party is led by someone who's as crushingly stupid as Jagmeet Singh. 0.95
00:00:15.860 At any moment here during this Chinese Communist Party election interference scandal with Justin Trudeau, Jagmeet Singh could easily be coming out on top every single day. He is propping up Justin Trudeau's minority government. He could be demanding an open inquiry. He could be forcing Justin Trudeau's hand to go for an open public inquiry and fire special rapporteur David Johnson, one of Justin Trudeau's family friends who served on the board of the Trudeau Foundation. 0.99
00:00:45.240 Jagmeet Singh could do all of this. He could get legislative concessions given to him and the NDP. He could pass a bunch of his agenda. He could be a star in front of the media and be gaining massive amounts of donations for the NDP.
00:00:58.920 I don't like the federal NDP. I'm an extremely blue conservative. But goodness, it drives me up the wall when I see someone being this bad at politics. He doesn't even need, if he's worried that he doesn't really want an election in 2023 or 2024, and he wants to wait it out because it does benefit the NDP to gather up a war trust over four years rather than just a couple of years.
00:01:21.300 He could still, you know, maybe try and kneecap whatever investigations done by Justin Trudeau. But dude, at least pretend to investigate him. At least stop complimenting David Johnson. You look like a fool.
00:01:34.160 Who are you getting the votes of by basically being the weakling opposition to Justin Trudeau? I guarantee you there's going to be liberals and NDP voters who vote conservative next election because both of those sorts of voters see both of their parties, both the NDP and the liberals, as not being capable of solving any of Canada's problems. 1.00
00:01:58.760 And election interference is definitely one of the problems you want to look competent at facing. Like, yeah, every government to a certain extent sucks with money, but dude, you're going to suck with election security. 0.93
00:02:11.660 And again, Jagmeet Singh is kind of with the government. He's kind of in opposition. He could ride a very fine line, make himself look great. At the same time, he's getting his own legislative priorities passed. 0.98
00:02:22.820 And he looks like a big opponent of Justin Trudeau, while Justin Trudeau still always owes him one because he could collapse his government whenever he wants. But for some reason, Jagmeet Singh could get outplayed by a dead parrot because we are in the midst of a scandal where Jagmeet Singh seems to be basically jumping in front of bullets for Justin Trudeau.
00:02:42.100 And pretending while even the liberal mainstream media is looking at Justin Trudeau and David Johnson's sort of slight overview of election interference and pretending everything's A-OK, even the mainstream media is going after them for this effectively fake investigation.
00:03:00.100 And Jagmeet Singh's over there like twiddling his thumbs, being like, oh, it looks pretty good to me. I hope people donate to the NDP and keep us in power.
00:03:06.340 Like, I don't even believe the idea that Jagmeet Singh's just in government still because he wants his pension.
00:03:12.200 I don't even think Jagmeet Singh knows what a pension is. I think he just likes being in office and he likes seeing himself in nice suits and nice watches on TV talking to the media.
00:03:22.620 I legitimately think that he is that shallow of a person, that his motivation to still be in parliament is that thin.
00:03:29.040 But hopefully he gets kicked out soon, or at least he moves on because this is embarrassing to watch, even if I find it hilarious as a conservative.
