If anyone thinks this is hyperbole, there is a CBC interview with Doug where he claims Trump "took a page out of their book" and not the other way around. There are other occasions where he has spoken about his admiration for Trump, and opted to stay at Trump's hotel while on a diplomatic visit.

Edit: Since this is drawing some ire I thought I would clarify that this is no remark on either politician in itself. They are Doug Ford's words.

This site is not the vehicle for slinging political commentary and trying to be edgy, even if I might agree with it. Perhaps you would feel more at home on Reddit.

That’s okay, I fully support him. There’s bound to be differences of opinion, but after a decade and half of liberal corruption, Doug Ford is incredibly refreshing. Will vote for him again.
