    No more than the States. This is our Hillary Clinton moment. I’m a little too blinded by fear to be able to accurately judge PP’s actual election chances so I guess we’ll have to see if history will repeat itself.

      I doubt PP will win, he’s too unhinged for a lot of the older demographic here. These are the people who would vote for the Harperesque type. Yah know, the milktoast crew

        I doubted trump would win. Then he did.
        PP is following the trump playbook. I’m no longer as confident about the rationality of voters.

        But conservatives do nothing if not fall in line. And a good portion of modern conservatives are actually just fascist and cryptofascist. That’s what I’m scared of.
