So Jordan Peterson thinks Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a narcissist..I’d say that’s a safe bet..“I try to put myself in the position of the people that I’m criticizing,” said Peterson in a video released Thursday. .“I think he’s a narcissist.” .Well, Peterson is a psychiatrist and one who swims against the woke river as far as gender identity and gender pronouns are concerned, so he has my utmost respect. But it doesn’t take a psychiatrist to know that Trudeau is a narcissist. His picture might be in the dictionary..It is fascinating to draw the parallels between the 1970s and the 2020s. Fifty years apart, both decades are defined by horrible economic indicators, energy shortages, ridiculous fashions and narcissistic political leadership..Yes! Who was prime minister in Canada in 1972? Why that would be Pierre Trudeau, Justin’s father. The difference between the two men is that while both thought the world began and ended with their personality and while both were driven by ideology, the elder Trudeau was intellectually well beyond his son in terms of being able to explain why he believed what he believed..Justin Trudeau has essentially been governing by personality alone since 2015 and that personality has been well lined with Teflon. Few prime ministers have endured so many scandals that have been direct affronts to their purported ideals, than Trudeau..But that’s part of the narcissistic character. It’s never my fault. Bad news is always externalized..Trudeau gets along fine with U.S. President Joe Biden..However, Biden’s mental acuity is too far gone to demonstrate anything like narcissism. Even when Biden was on his game as vice president or as a high-rolling senator, he was more a deal maker who knew he was part of the equation, and not the deciding factor..The president that Trudeau really bonded with was Barack Obama because he really found his political and narcissistic brother. No one but Obama can continue to write autobiographies from his mansion in Martha’s Vineyard about his eight-year presidency and claim that America is still afflicted by white supremacy, and that black people are too oppressed to succeed..Trudeau’s blackface history is another example of his narcissism. While he routinely calls his opponents racists and white supremacists, Trudeau celebrated blackface in front of his friends and colleagues for years..He apparently saw no problem with this and when the videos began to appear, Trudeau was barely contrite. In fact he appeared more annoyed that the secret was out. But he blamed the racism of Quebec and Montreal for his media problems..Trudeau proclaims himself a feminist. But he has little time for women when they get in his way. When a journalist came forward and said Trudeau had groped her, the prime minister said he couldn’t even remember the incident..Of course not: who was she? He was Justin Trudeau after all and destined to be PM some day. Trudeau dropped Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould when she became expendable and behind closed doors, he is said to treat female MPs like a latter-day Fred Flintstone. At least one has left the Liberal caucus, alleging his abuse..But a narcissist can live with this because it’s obviously not his fault. Just a misunderstanding..A narcissist might be able to govern a country if he or she has some basic ability. But Trudeau has shown little to none..He just passed up one of the biggest trade deals in history: Accepting German-made electric cars and telling Germany that, no thanks, we won’t sell you natural gas because there’s no “business case” for it..Only a congenital idiot or an ideological fool would make that kind of statement. There is a billion-dollar business case in that deal and Canada is going to lose a piece of its auto sector in the process..And that’s only the latest catastrophe. We are headed for worse and can only hope and pray the Liberal-NDP alliance falls apart in September or Trudeau — narcissist that he is — decides to go for an early election because he’s convinced he’s destined to win a majority government.
