He obviously misspoke but that's hilarious
This and referring to everyone on stage as "contestants" were both pretty funny.
Wow. Just silliness. The only residual discussion after the debate is "Did he say 'gay' or 'gagged'?"
Says a lot about the importance of the debate in the overall election.
Think I read some study several years back (probably following the Trump-Clinton one) that concluded almost everyone always perceives their "team's" candidate as having won the debate, and the number of voters swayed by a stellar performance from another candidate is negligible.
Yeah, they're pretty damn pointless...
Except the news media thinks they are, so we will probably continue to have them, if not just for the entertainment value. They fill in some of the 'air time'.
can someone explain this to me?
Canadian leadership debate tonight, guy on the right is carney, guy on the left is Pierre Polievere or PP.
Carney asked about PP's refusal to get a security clearance despite being leader of the opposition in parliament. PP was stumbling in his response.
ok but why would he be gay for getting a clearance?
As someone else mentioned, he was probably trying to say the word 'gagged' and he talks weird.
This guy is weird enough that he can't even have media around unless he is scripted, so it doesn't surprise me.
I hate the guy but I was actually surprised with his debate performance tonight
In the next 10 seconds he said 'gagged' so pretty mild fuckup I think
thats mildly entertaining tho
I mean. That reaction by Carney is excellent clowning.
I hate defending a moron, but I'm also for fairness. If you listen closely, you can hear the "-gged" it's just not well pronounced.
He had no problem being gagged in that moment, clearly.
It's a slip up on PPs part. He's trying to say gagged but either due to getting the thought from his brain to his mouth getting mixed up, or just slipping up on the word It sounds much more like gay.
freudian slip.
ah ok
Gagged. Are you all really hearing gay or is this a big troll?
I heard gay on my first viewing. After playing it again I picked up on what he was actually trying to say. I think k it's something along the lines of mondegreen where you can hear the wrong words in songs.
Not a troll. I heard it when I watched live and didn't figure out he meant gagged until he said it a second time. Listening to it again I can hear it either way, his pronunciation at the end is just a little off.
PP is gay, make it known to his shitty conservative voters pls.
They see him as a strongman. You won't have any luck with this.
I think that's why conaervatives like PP but not JT.
Conservatives want to be the bottom so they don't like leaders they can fuck but rather prefer leaders who can fuck them.
Holy shit guys. I need to get my security clearance!
Every accusation is a confession...
Seriously, probably meant to say gagged, and failed miserably. I still think it's a shit excuse.
Did PP's wife (who is present in way too high a percentage of his publicity material) know about this in advance? π€£
He just took a drink of water too. Imagine if Carney had done a spit take.
He needs the Forrest Gump "d" in there.
He obviously said gagged. It literally sounds more like gagged than gay even if he did mispronounce.
I agree it's obvious he meant to say "gagged", but it absolutely sounds like he said "gay".
Yeah he said it like Gaygd
Can we get a link?
It's a 17 second videoβ¦
Weird, Voyager is just displaying it as an image. Opening it in Firefox linked me to the Imgur video.
My bad!
