Every one of these guys thinks they’re Oppenheimer mixed with Andrew Carnegie and they own something called SplortDotCom that got bought by Boozoo

As far as I can tell, @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social and @chrystia-freeland.bsky.social are both highly qualified candidates who would govern with competence and integrity. But Ms. Freeland has the additional qualification of Donald Trump absolutely hating her guts.
