An article last week claimed the boycotts were mere performance art and ineffective.
Let’s see- exports of alcohol from USA down 90% Florida tourists down, two airlines cancelled or drastically reduced all flights from Canada to USA
One hell of a performance if you ask me.

And you don’t have to be perfect to make as many right choices as you can.

It feels like we’ve entered an era where if you try to do something right and good, someone says oh but you did that bad thing once.

His plan is to take the helm prior to this election or ensure PP is finished afterward.
