"Trudeau is himself like a child. In that video, it seems he himself knows that in fairness, he should have been thrown out of office." I had the exact feeling when I saw this, it appeared like Trudeau's handlers said it was all up and you better issue a really good mea culpa but you probably will not recover. Not only did he recover but he kept on doing insanely stupid things. The only affect Trudeau has on my life is I can no longer legally use a plastic straw, unless I go to Burger King that for some reason keeps handing them out.
