It is not that the CPC is a joke it is just that it has a lot going against it right now. On the left you have a very strong Liberal party that has modest support from the other left wing parties. On the right you have the PPC which is a huge threat to siphon votes in key ridings. Even 2-3% of the vote is dangerous. We can spend 5 mill on ads and Max will undo it in 3 tweets. His goal is to make is look like the LPC-lite and so far it has been working.
On the hill it is no secret that Trudeau will be impossible to beat unless he gets hit with a scandal. People genuinely like the guy. I often see him chumming it up with CPC and Bloc MPs who the general public would swear are his enemies based on the HOC clips they see on National. He has also converted the boomers, a key vote for the CPC. COVID was a huge tool in helping him do that. they all think he is saving them from certain death.
We need a hail Mary. A real scandal not some made up garbage that nobody cares about (blackface, SNC, etc) but as he matures this becomes less and less likely to happen.
EDIT: And I get that this is a PPC forum but I am just trying to shed some light on what is going on from my perspective. I don't hate Max at all.
