So . What exactly was Trudeau supposed to do in this situation ? He has no control over the actions of a foundation founded for his father and which he is no longer associated with . Had he called them up and ordered them not to accept the donation to avoid making him look bad , people would be screaming bloody murder that he was interfering with an external organization to avoid bad PR for himself . You want to be mad at somebody , be mad at the Trudeau Foundation for creating some questionable optics by accepting the donation , but even that ' s a stretch . <| sep |> I ' d listen to him actually . <| sep |> Wow , didn ' t realize my spaghetti vessel would garner so much love ! I got the mug here the contents . well , that ' s best left undisclosed !
