I know many of us are enjoying the schadenfreude of seeing UCP supporters outraged at the clowns, hypocrites and idiots they elected. I am! But let’s not take that for granted. For one thing, they might forget by next election. 1/5
Also, the selfishness, entitlement, and lack of critical thinking skills that made them vote for UCP in the first place have not gone away. There is a strong possibility that the real reason some of them are mad is because *they* did not hop a plane to Hawaii or Mexico too! 2/5
Selfish disdain for others is the beginning & end of the character of many, if not most, UCP supporters. There is nothing they hate more than seeing someone else get something they felt entitled to. These people will still be cheering when UCP cuts teacher salaries this year. 3/5
And the anger I’ve seen some of them expressing is that this failure in leadership by Kenney ( #ResignKenney) might make it easier to re-elect NDP again. Their diatribes against the UCP beach bunnies include lots of vitriol about ‘What if this makes us lose the next election?’ 4/5
They continue to delude themselves that ‘things were looking up’ last January (not true) or that NDP was not governing effectively. So we need to be watchful, and not be complacent that this has won people away from UCP, necessarily. They fell for the lies before, after all. 5/5
