Last week was not a good week for Justin Trudeau..There was the new haircut, with pundits likening the look to another Canadian well-known for dressing up (see: The Mask)..Not sure how you feel about the new ‘do’ but I think he’ll ‘Carrey’ it off, quite well..Sorry about that..Let’s get serious..Podcaster Joe Rogan did not hold back his thoughts about Trudeau last week..During The Joe Rogan Experience he was speaking with comedian/author Tom Segura about the COVID-19 lockdowns and regulations in Canada, admitting that before the pandemic, he actually liked Trudeau, saying he previously thought the prime minister was a “cool guy.”.“I just liked him,” he said. “I liked him before the pandemic. I was like he’s a handsome guy. Good looking guy. Confident talker.”.With the arrival of COVID-19, Rogan said he saw Trudeau’s true self..“During the pandemic I’m like ‘oh, he’s a f---ing dictator.'”.“He doesn’t like criticism. He’s trying to shut down criticism by saying all his critics are misogynist and racists. He said that about the truckers. He called them all misogynist and racists.”.“Canada is communist,” Rogan said. “They’re f---ed. They’ve got to get rid of that guy [Trudeau].”.“He’s gross,” said Rogan. “He’s a sketchy guy. He’s got some f---ing shaky deals. I would like to see where the money is coming from. Why do you want everybody to get injected every four months? They don’t need that anymore.”.Rogan slammed Canada’s restrictions on entering the country, noting everyone must be vaccinated to get in, calling the restrictions old. “It’s 2022,” he said..“You [Trudeau] are deciding — you’re taking people that have a perspective on a medical intervention, and you’re deciding that you’re going to demonize them in the worst possible ways, with no evidence.”.Rogan isn’t the only one with whom Trudeau has lost favour..As Arthur C. Green notes in his Western Standard column, a Postmedia-Leger survey of Canadians asked, "Do you approve or disapprove of the job Justin Trudeau is doing as Prime Minister of Canada?," with only 7% of respondents strongly approving and 32% strongly disapproving..In the key 18- to 34-year-old demographic, the approval rating falls to 4%..In total, 55% gave a disapproval rating..“When you take the results to these questions in their entirety, one can’t help but think the progressive coalition that elected Trudeau to his majority in 2015 and contributed to his back-to-back minorities is significantly strained, if not broken,” Andrew Enns, an executive vice-president at Leger, told the National Post..On a high note, 16% of respondents said his greatest achievement was legalizing recreational marijuana, the 'highest' rating of any ‘achievement.’.Trudeau has been tongue-lashed by world leaders gathering at various summits this year, as well as in the US House of Representatives in June, when Republican Rep. Bob Good put the Trudeau government in the same totalitarian box as Communist China..“The guarantee provided by our Founders to ensure we remain free from foreign invasion and, yes, as our Founders clearly warned us, from an oppressive government like we see in Canada, Australia, and the Democrats’ beloved Communist China is the constitutional right of law-abiding citizens to be armed as they choose,” said Good..Diminishing approval ratings, at home and abroad, suggest Trudeau faces challenges for re-election..When asked, "Do you think he should resign before the next election and let someone else lead the Liberal Party and the country?," 49 % of respondents to the Leger survey said yes..Yep, a tough week for Trudeau, with more ahead, no doubt..Obviously more than just a bad hair day.
