This type of harassment is as likely to gain Trudeau sympathy and/or support as not. The 'bozo factor' had sunk Conservative fortunes in the past and seems set to do an encore.

I suspect that that would never occur to these smooth-brain, Facebook-addled idiots.

I'm not a fan of Trudeau, nor the Liberal party in general, but it's about what I'm left with following the collapse of the Conservatives into the abyss of populist willful ignorance and downright, abject stupidity.

I do begrudgingly agree with John Baird on Trudeau being pretty successful overall. I've voted for him before, and it looks like I'll do it again.

My only concern here is when this gets bad enough, it incentivizes the centrist party to mostly ignore the misinformation and radicalization rather than trying to stamp it out. In the states, the Democrats seems to be just a little too content fundraising on the fringe Republicans. Then you end up with a Trump and/or stochastic terrorism.
