The crazy thing about the crazy things I‘m hearing, is that it isn’t rando rally-goers from the party’s base saying them.
It’s delegates, the party brass and membership. These are folks who run the party.

Yes, Danielle Smith is a separatist

NEW: This week on Whatever This Is, the one word everyone missed from Carney’s speech.
