LOL why is he even making a statement on the CPC leadership race?
Obsessed much?
Sounds like he's filled with regret over quitting the party, since it would probably be his turn right now if he'd stuck it out. Lashing out at the CPC endlessly is his way of coping, of trying to convince himself he did the right thing (he didn't).
No, not at all.
He needed to run in 10-15 targeted ridings, make sure the candidates were excellent and build on that.
More importantly, he needed to play nice with the CPC and go after the left, rather than attacking them and ignoring everyone else. He had one question in a debate to make his mark, and he used it to ask Scheer if he considered himself to be a "real conservative."
5-10 seats where he propped up the government wouldn't have been a bad goal. He'd be exceptionally relevant in today's parliament if he'd done that.
Instead he went for the short-term, win-it-all-or-go-bust play and it fucked him.
He needs to change tacks and quickly. His attacks on the CPC are far more motivated and more vehement than his attacks on the LPC and he almost never attacks the NDP (the party that used cheap accusations of racism against him and which certainly deserves some bitterness.)
He could have been the godfather of a new political party and written himself into history, but he went for it all. It's sad.
Well, when your only goal is to shave as many points off of the CPC as you can for the rest of time and keep collecting that sweet donation cash from your followers, there really is no success/failure end sate. There's just you sitting on the couch, tweeting about the CPC, cashing those donation checks and if you're lucky, occasionally laughing at the CPC when they lose an election, hopefully due in part to your efforts.
Why bother? He's collecting a $100k/year salary from his gullible followers. All he's gotta do is tweet once in a while to keep them thinking the PPC is a real party with real political intentions and that money will keep rolling in forever.
