I’m done with it. You should be too. And here’s my Twitter thread about it today (and you should follow me on Twitter):
Trudeau now boasting about "our government" (he uses the term as in "us Liberals") doling out more cash, and it comes off to me as campaign-style.
If he were required to use the word "taxpayers" instead of "our government" , his daily briefings would present a more accurate pic.

…This Trudeau daily morning show is well past its best-before date.
What he says has never been useful, as he simply reads-out a well-prepared script.
And on a personal level he's reading it in a pedantic, irritating manner. If he were acting, I'd call it bad, over-acting

…But the poor performance of the news media, who simply lob softballs for him to bat off (as if they literally work for him instead of challenging him), and/or accept ridiculous garbage answers without pressing, this has become little more than a PR show for the Liberal Party.

The news media instead challenge what THE OPPOSITION say when THEY challenge the government. Case in point, @RosieBarton of the state-owned CBC just now. This is an exact quote of the **news achor's** political analysis post the Trudeau show…#cdnpoli #cdnmedia pic.twitter.com/CdGEzaSQKG

This tweet is exemplary of the "our government" — "Us Liberals" conflict. https://t.co/6jJ5L8TDdo
