I'll never understand how people elected this guy, but I'm willing to believe that a good lot of them voted originally out of some sincere belief. It's not like the other options were particularly wonderful, or the progressive side of Toronto politics presents any clear path for improvement.
But if after events like this weekend, someone paying attention to the news won't stop and be concerned about the (I say almost certain) possibility that he drove himself there drunk, or that his manner was undignified for a leader, or that he was unprofessional in not being there for event organizers and being absent to his own staff, or that people on the street are mocking him, and instead hide behind some statement like "he was having a good time with a couple beers at a street party and getting down with the regular people" then I don't know what is driving them, be it spite or stupidity. He never even made it to the street party, he was 2km away.
And then there are all the connections to drugs and crime. If someone is aware of any of that and still think wants to claim it's the result of the media picking on Rob, I don't have any explanation for why they choose to be so oblivious.
We won't even talk about how he seems disinterested and inattentive to his job.
