Summary
Justin Trudeau's biggest electoral issue is the fact he has no ability to take responsibility for his own actions. He only has the ability to blame other people, demonize other people and then wash his hands of the situation, pretend that he's never accused anyone of anything, even though he is the biggest political bully in all of Canada.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Even though he would never listen to me,
00:00:04.760
if Prime Minister Justin Trudeau actually developed a little bit of humility, which is
00:00:09.160
already a comedic concept, he would actually gain a lot more support back in the polls.
00:00:14.180
Justin Trudeau's biggest electoral issue is the fact he has no ability to take responsibility for
00:00:19.360
his own actions. If he did, even if he said, I messed up a lot, there would be a lot of people
00:00:24.240
saying, well, at least he's listening. But Justin Trudeau does not have the ability to listen. He
00:00:29.720
only has the ability to blame other people, demonize other people, and then wash his hands
00:00:34.540
of the situation, pretend that he's never accused anyone of anything, even though he is the biggest
00:00:38.920
political bully in all of Canada. So I want to highlight two things from the Liberal Party
00:00:44.020
social media. One, a video that I'll talk about a bit later, and one, a graphic they're putting out
00:00:49.240
just demonstrating that they don't understand how the average Canadian voter works. They are so used
00:00:54.400
to relying on Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver to win the vast majority of their seats that they
00:01:00.340
really don't have to care about doing that well outside of those areas, because even if they win
00:01:04.200
the occasional seat in Alberta and Manitoba, and they win a bunch of the Maritimes, they're pretty
00:01:08.860
safe in government, whether that means winning majority or minority government. It's kind of like
00:01:14.580
playing on easy mode to be a Liberal in Canada, since the deck is kind of stacked in your favour. But
00:01:20.440
they've gotten so used to not trying that they're now just assuming that every single voter is a
00:01:25.520
Bay Street investor, and at the same time, they're now attacking those Bay Street investors because
00:01:31.380
they need to play to their base who is struggling economically. They're in this strange bind where
00:01:36.420
they are both playing to hyper-progressive rich people in Toronto, at the same time they are now
00:01:41.620
attacking those people to try and win back all the struggling voters who stopped voting for them.
00:01:46.120
So this is the first thing I wanted to highlight. The Liberals are still posting about Alex Jones for
00:01:52.560
some reason. I do not know why. This post reads,
00:01:55.580
Piripolyev got the endorsement of far-right Americans conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, and he still hasn't
00:02:01.320
denounced his support. And they actually had to use the headline, Piripolyev accused of tolerating the
00:02:08.400
support of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. How is that a story? You've been accused of potentially
00:02:15.040
tolerating the support of Alex Jones, a man that I don't doubt that Piripolyev has heard his name,
00:02:21.020
but probably doesn't know or care anything about him. So, but the Liberals think that you are a
00:02:27.460
histrionic, hyper-progressive downtown still wearing a mask, blue hair, and screaming at anyone who's
00:02:32.860
slightly conservative, so that this is going to motivate you to vote. And if that doesn't motivate
00:02:38.180
you to vote, well, Justin Trudeau can always use some class warfare and pretend that everyone's
00:02:43.360
problems are the 1%, even though he is the 1% of the 1%, and he himself is the one that's been
00:02:50.240
ruining everyone's lives. Maybe that's what he means. Maybe when he blames the 1%, he's talking
00:02:54.180
about himself, but he's trying to pretend that it's everyone in the 1% when he's the one who's
00:02:59.040
been in charge of policy this entire time. So here's the Liberal Party video that they posted
00:03:04.040
themselves. Asking the wealthiest 1% to pay a little bit more to make sure that young people
00:03:09.140
can see themselves buying a home in a few years, to make sure that we have dental care right across
00:03:15.880
the country for seniors, to make sure that we're delivering prescription contraceptives for free
00:03:21.880
to young women who need the options of family planning, to deliver free diabetes medication
00:03:27.380
to people right across the country so that we avoid those consequences. That's the role of a
00:03:32.140
government. Okay, guys, I'm going to say spoiler alert here. Justin Trudeau is not going to deliver
00:03:37.060
any of this stuff. And the rich 1% paying a little bit more money is not going to do anything because
00:03:43.140
the government is incompetent at delivering these resources. The free market is way better at making
00:03:47.940
these resources and products more available and cheaper. Whenever the government gets involved,
00:03:53.140
they might make it cheaper for some people, but they're also going to shorten the supply.
00:03:56.600
The only way the 1% paying more is going to make young Canadians see themselves living in a home
00:04:02.400
one day is if the money gets spent on the government shooting a movie about a fictional world where
00:04:07.660
millennials and zoomers can actually afford to buy a house. That's the only way I'm going to see myself
00:04:12.520
being able to just fully purchase a house without a disgusting mortgage in the future is if they
00:04:17.520
literally just cast me in the film or I'm buying a house and then I go home until I rent an apartment or
00:04:23.540
something like that. That's the only way any of this is going to work. But Justin Trudeau just
00:04:27.100
thinks that if he bribes people and then instigates class warfare, somehow he's going to come out and
00:04:31.540
top, even though the NDP and the Greens tend to be the more socialistic left-wing parties. So I don't
00:04:37.040
know why he's doing this. This is more of an NDP look for him that he can't pull off.
00:04:41.660
He can do everything, but it should be there as a partner in people's success and there to make sure
00:04:47.260
that the system is fair for everyone. That has been our focus every step of the way. Of course-
00:04:52.840
Dude, if that's been your focus every step of the way for nine years and everyone is poorer,
00:04:57.860
there's higher unemployment, there are fewer actual good paying jobs around, and all the housing costs
00:05:04.280
are through the roof. They've like almost doubled since he entered office. I think that you should
00:05:08.600
stop focusing on trying to help people. That's really what people are asking for. They're not
00:05:12.480
saying, oh, Trudeau, you're doing it wrong. And if we were in there, we would manipulate the
00:05:16.060
government to make everyone trillionaires. No, we would want you to just stop it. If you actually
00:05:21.360
stop tomorrow, the best times that Justin Trudeau has been prime minister are when he goes on
00:05:25.800
vacation. Because when he goes on vacation, he's not doing anything. When he is back working,
00:05:31.340
that's what freaks out the markets. That's what freaks out small business owners. Everyone thinks
00:05:35.440
he's about to pass a new tax because he usually does. If he's around an office long enough, he finds
00:05:39.620
some new way of taxing people more and pretending that that's going to make us billionaires if he just
00:05:44.140
taxes people enough. If he rips away money from people who are productive and throws it into
00:05:49.040
boondoggle projects, somehow we're all going to come out wealthier at the end of the day. It's like
00:05:53.080
the magic box theory of politics. If you give this politician more power, more money, and put it in
00:05:59.280
their magic box, something's going to come out the other side. And every time it doesn't materialize,
00:06:03.580
it turns out you just need to add another billion dollars into the box before it was going to work.
00:06:08.600
Because we're asking the ultra-wealthy to pay a little more, the conservatives have already come out
00:06:12.720
and said they're voting against this budget. No big surprise there. They have always demonstrated a
00:06:17.480
belief in trickle-down theory, and Pierre Polyev has been at the heart of that every step of the
00:06:22.800
way. Yeah, free market economics, supply-side economics don't work at all. And that's why
00:06:27.600
we're all way better off during Harper. It's just because Harper's, I don't know, some warlock or
00:06:33.180
something like that. And that's how he made us all wealthier. But trickle-down economics doesn't.
00:06:37.960
This isn't appealing to anybody. This is why Justin Trudeau is losing. I heard that there's a poll
00:06:43.300
that's coming out that shows the Liberal Party is up doesn't surprise me. The Liberals are going to
00:06:48.020
rise in the polls every time they announce a big, massive new slate of spending. Every time a
00:06:52.380
government comes out with a budget and the media bends over backwards to pretend that this is great
00:06:56.680
and we're all billionaires already because of how great this budget is, it naturally puts up the
00:07:01.380
incumbent government a little bit in the polls. When people keep realizing they keep getting poor,
00:07:05.580
no matter how much Justin Trudeau kicks rich people, everyone's going to turn on them and keep
00:07:10.300
voting Conservative. Even in this new poll, it's probably still going to be the Conservatives
00:07:13.440
winning majority. The Conservatives should win a majority. It's not even exactly that the Conservatives
00:07:18.180
deserve it. I think Pauli deserves to be Prime Minister. He's worked hard at becoming it and
00:07:22.760
grinding it out in government. But it's not even exactly that the Conservatives deserve to win a
00:07:27.180
majority. It's that the Liberals and the NDP so profoundly deserve to never be in office again.
00:07:33.040
They just seem to have contempt for anybody who's actually successful. And then they pretend that they
00:07:39.040
are standing up for the poor, the downtrodden, and the suffering when really they're just using them
00:07:43.900
as a stage to stand on while they point and tell people to attack rich people. Anyways, that should
00:07:50.520
be it for me today, guys. And I just want to do my normal plug that I, Wyatt Claypool, I'm running for
00:07:55.460
the riding of Calgary Signal Hill. It's on the west side of Calgary here. This is what the riding
00:08:00.500
boundaries are going to look like after they get redistributed in a few days' time here. So if you live in
00:08:05.120
this area, buy a Conservative Party membership, vote for me number one on your ballot in the
00:08:09.700
nomination, and check out my website in the description below, wyattclaypool.com. And you
00:08:14.040
can also donate to the TNT Legal Fund if you want to help us fight off a bunch of frivolous lawsuits
00:08:18.780
we're dealing with that have cost us a combined like $33,000. The one major one has cost me like
00:08:25.080
$29,000. It's ridiculous. Anyways, that's all for me today. Someone said yesterday, I always say this is
00:08:31.880
it for me today, even if I make multiple videos. And you know what, you're a weasel for pointing
00:08:36.340
that out, because you're right. And I keep doing that. And I hate it now. And now every single time
00:08:40.540
I say that's it for me today, I think about your comment. So yeah, feel good about yourself for
00:08:45.460
getting inside my head. But I'm coming after you in some abstract way. Have a good one.
