Public office takes it Toll

[MikePal]

Was reading an article in Maclean's this morning and they were pointing out that the Village Idiot will the the oldest (yes he's older than Erin O'Toole) candidate in the next election.

Looking back at pics you can easily see how holding public office takes it's toll on people. For Trudeau he went from a fresh face young man to a tired looking old man in 6 yrs. Startling transformation .

It’s a strange role for a man who led the Liberals to a majority in 2015 on a wave of energy, uplift and change, and whose entire existence as a national politician has centred on youthfulness—for better (exuberance, idealism, the ambitious upside of confident optimism) and for worse (self-righteousness, cliquishness, the cloying downside of confident optimism).

And the shift goes well beyond shallow branding; many of the promises and policies that were most pointedly associated with the fresh approach of the Trudeau government have evaporated or curdled.

I think it's probably like the old saying goes. Putting lipstick on a pig well now the lipstick is starting to fade and the real pig is being revealed.

As another old saying goes BS baffles brains and by the looks and sounds of things you sure do seem to fit that old verse. Cheers
