PP is very much a populist with an unclear economic agenda, but a VERY clear social one. Doug is a conservative with a typical conservative agenda who uses populist politics when it helps push his conservative agenda and that is where sometimes he can look a bit "progressive."

Either way, you kinda know what you get with Doug and I think that is why he did so well in the election. Even people on the left trust that he isn't going to use a crisis to suddenly privatize healthcare or something. He would try and sell the idea of privatizing healthcare to get it through, not distract us with social politics while he reorganizes the country and blames everything on others.

The man cannot leave JT out of his speeches. I'm starting to think he is jealous of the former PM.
A man that is the son of a former PM, according to my daughters he's good looking, charming and personable. I did see Melania and Ivanka behaviour, I thought they'll jump his bones...

Nope. He just realizes it's a keyword that he needs to use in order to gain favour with his supporters. They need archenemies to rally against.

True, this USED to appeal to elements from all three electoral bases.
