This idiotic tweet should raise the level of discourse. Maybe she wants people to never vote for a woman, or a liberal, again. It’s the only plausible explanation I can muster. Short of a medical or mental issue.

[HERE IT IS IN CASE SHE DELETES IT — UPDATE: She appears to have — see below.]
I like this response (one of many thousands, rendering her tweet a total ratio-ed disaster):
Kim Campbell, 19th Prime Minister of Canada, your death wish for Americans to die in a hurricane is a glimpse into the evil of your spirit. Being in your twighlight years, this is forever your life’s legacy.

I wonder if Konrad Yakabuski thinks she is “un-Canadian!” Janice Dean, the “weather machine” at Fox News Channel, doesn’t think she’s very “Canadian,” if that helps, Konrad:
I don’t care what your politics are, wishing harm on anyone in the path of a potentially deadly hurricane is disgusting and not very “Canadian”

And of course it’s quite a serious matter when someone with this lack of decency and propriety, a hideous lack of compassion, a lack of a basic human soul, and an obvious lack of internal editor, was hand-chosen by Justin Trudeau to be on his select committee of elitist asses to select Supreme Court nominees — to serve as chairman! — as this tweeter recognized:
Just a reminder. This person was chosen to be on the committee to select new Supreme Court justices. That should help build confidence in the legal system (same legal system that used a bus to run over Jody Wilson-Reybold.)

What a disgrace.
UPDATE:
Possibly deleted finally, as Twitter now displays a blank page. Glad I screen-captured the original tweet.
Her explanation should be interesting.
UPDATE 2: PHONY APOLOGY. Not Interesting at all.
Campbell deleted and “sincerely apologized” only to “all it offended.” Personally, for me it wasn’t that I was “offended,” because I can’t take people like her seriously. It was just that she demonstrated herself to be a petulant ass, and I exposed it for your edification. Nothing has changed here — or perhaps it’s even worse now. One time, Kim Campbell called President Trump a “Motherfu**er” in a tweet. She deleted that one too, and basically slammed anyone who didn’t like her tweet. What’s next?
I have deleted my tweet about the hurricane & Mar a Lago and sincerely apologize to all it offended. It was intended as sarcasm-not a serious wish of harm. Throwaway lines get a life of their own on Twitter. I shd know better. Mea culpa.

UPDATED AGAIN: Good tweet by Michael (no blue checkmark?) Taube :
It wasn’t intended as sarcasm, Kim. You’ve been doing this act for years, and thought you could get away with it again. Hence, your pseudo-apology rings hollow. https://t.co/LX4kRHKAIf
