You're Not Helping

But, please, continue doing it, Barry.

Help tank Justin for us:

Former president Barack Obama is not nearly as distasteful a person as the president of Russia, but he was engaged in a much more open case of intrusion when he urged Canadian voters Wednesday to vote for the Liberal leader over other candidates.

(Sidebar: oh, I find him plenty distasteful.)

“I was proud to work with Justin Trudeau as President,” he tweeted. “He’s a hard-working, effective leader who takes on big issues like climate change. The world needs his progressive leadership now, and I hope our neighbors to the north support him for another term.”

Speaking at a campaign stop in St Hyacinthe, Que., Trudeau said of the endorsement: “I appreciate the kind words and am working hard to keep our progress going.” He declined to answer whether he asked Obama for his backing.

A loser backing another loser.

How could this look bad?


Also:

If former U.S. president Barack Obama is such a big fan of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau — as he indicated Wednesday in a tweet to his 109 million followers — why didn’t he support Trudeau when it counted, by approving the Keystone XL pipeline?

Indeed.
