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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

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.
