Liberals win, but they've formed a minority government instead of a majority. This means the liberals have to be strategic when drafting bills, as they need other parties support to get them across the finish line.
The thing with minority governments is that they tend to be shorter than majority governments, as the official opposition party has an easier time calling a confidence vote, which happens if a majority of the members of parliament no longer support the ruling party. So basically, if the liberals piss off the NDP and the Bloc, the Conservatives can call a confidence vote and force another election.

Trump definitely mattered. To give a concrete comparison, Ontario's incumbent Con premier, Doug Ford, won handily by calling out Trump's remarks.
Poilievre perhaps could have won if he tried a similar tactic, but he waffled and dragged his fight on presenting a strong front against Trump. For me personally, that and how late the Cons were with presenting their budget plan really soured me towards their party for this election.

The bullet wasn't really a back and forth debate. Neither was Biden, speaking facetiously.
And if there's no decline, why does his team not want open mics for him?

I can see that being very effective. Even if you're not fond of girlbosses, not being able to hold your own in a debate is a very telling weakness.

If having unmuted mics worked for Trump last time, why is his team not agreeing to it now?
I'm thinking trumps cognitive decline is far worse than expected and his team is worried about how he'll look.

It does, which is why Trump's connections to Epistein are constantly posted and talked about.
But wasn't the entire population fitting into these categories in the last 200,000 years? Why do you think the current ultra-religious communities will survive when so many haven't?
Antibiotics create immune bacteria, but only when you administer it sporadically. The current depression factors on fertility don't seem to be sporadic.
