Publically announcing your hurt feewings instead of asking the other person why they didn’t contact you first is pretty rich coming from a PM.
Maybe Trudeau should have risen to the occasion and acted like an adult instead of coming across as elitist who wasn’t treated with the proper deference.
This is politics from both parties. Singh didn’t say anything first because the conditions were pretty clear, and it’s politically advantageous to strike first. Trudeau talks about being the aggrieved party because that’s politically advantageous, too.
He didn’t used to be tho. When he first ran to be an MP he was articulate, open-minded, and took time to talk to the nation. The first indication he had issues was when he backed down from his promise of electoral reform … the beginning of the end I guess.
He didn’t really talk to the nation. He played a role: sunny, shiny, happy, rainbow-painted park benches pride parades, but underneath it’s the same champagne-sipping Laurentian neoliberal wankery.*
I’d say the mask was off with either electoral reform or, and this is my theory, the lightning-fucking-quick move to sell TMX.
(as opposed to the tall-hat, cowboy-cosplaying Calgarian elite that’s the CPC)

That’s not the easiest thing when you’re a narcissist politician.

He’s still articulate now, and I would argue any open-mindedness he shows has always been a performance.
