PP is putting on his high school production of "Look Daddy, I can be a bully too."

It looks especially awkward when he goes on Canadian news channels and just calmly reads the script he wrote for himself, he kinda sounds telemarketer, always coming back to the product, it's all very forced. Trump is a much bigger salesman, way more bombastic.

Poilievres online persona is so much more aggressive, he's catering his message for whomever he's speaking to. Trump is just Trump.

Where he is like Trump, is promising to use things like the notwithstanding clause to circumvent checks on power, interfere in issues outside his jurisdiction, and he never stops lying.
