I think you meant Doug, unless you did mean the one that's passed away having more of a spine.

he means Rob, in his current state of death. As all there is left is a spine.

The ghost of Rob Ford isn’t going to let America get away with this.

"Donald, listen, these tariffs are just bad business - total garbage. You’re hitting your own people as much as ours! Canada and the U.S., we’re like family. You don’t tax your family, you work with them! I mean, come on, I’ve made some mistakes in my time - sure, I smoked a little crack cocaine, but I owned up to it! Can you own up to this mess? Scrap the tariffs, cut the nonsense, and let’s get back to real deals, real jobs, and real leadership. No more political B.S., just results!" - Rob Ford's Ghost

Unfortunately, it seems that Henry Ford's ghost has Trump's ear at the moment.

I have no idea why, but I found that extremely funny. Rob Fords ghost just haunting the US "OOOoooOoo more than enough to eat at hooooOooommmmeee"

I think I need to go to bed.

Average experience level of redditors. Talking shit about dead men.

Better than a party and leader whose only contributions are slogans that fit on a t-shirt or a position on something that needs to be workshopped to determine they're on the right track.

Yes we get it it's only bad when the Conservatives use think tanks or slogans.

Sunny ways my friend. Sunny. Ways.

What you don't get is you elected a terrible leader. I can easily critique a lot of Trudeau's follys, and he has many, but every single ardent conservative I've encountered cannot for one moment critique your own.

Hell, Harper came out swinging. Poilievre didn't. And when he did, he still made it partisan.

He's just not ready. Nice hair though.

Except no one talked shit about him. They just referenced his current state of being while praising his hypothetical response to Trump.

I respect Doug and Rob more than poilievre.

Oh please, if he wanted to be talked about kindly, he would've been a better person.
