If you come at Donald Trump, he's going to respond. Unless, apparently, you're Elon Musk.
Donald Trump always fires back at critics — but for now, he's staying quiet about Elon Musk. That tells you a lot about their alliance.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

As polls narrow, it is up to everyone who has a progressive bone in their body—looking at NDP and Green past voters—and Liberals to get out to vote and make sure that the Liberal candidates in their ridings win. The damage to all Canadians, if Poilievre wins, is irreparable. #CanadaStrong #CDNpoli
