So I just finished dinner with a downtown professional gay couple. Turns out they both voted for Doug Ford!! My jaws dropped and when I regained my composure, I asked them why. They then reeled off how Doug was "real", how he was for the people, how he kept the free spending at CityHall in check, how as soon as they got rid of Rob, they raised our taxes within 2 weeks!! Then they went on about how John Tory was a rich elitist beholden to business interests. I countered with the facts but it didn't matter. Doug was their man and they just shrugged and went back to the same talking points, you know, the Rob Ford approach in debates? It was like they were reading from the Ford's playbook. Totally drunk on the KoolAid.
Wow, I'm still shaking from the experience. It was like Doug Ford was speaking across the table.
ps They reverse commute to work, turns out they like talk radio and constantly tuned to 1010. So whoever does the 6-7am and 4-5pm time slot really did a good job.
