So Donald Trump tells us he doesn't like Pierre Poilievre.
Lol.
The MAGA team know that a Trump endorsement is a political death wish. Poor Pierre. He's their boy and has no respect.
Don't get fooled. He is their favourite sock puppet.

From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement.
Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”
