I thought that in a democracy people could think of voting for whoever they liked.

In what way was she 'forced' to apologise? If others objected to her statement and she felt that she wanted to retract it, then surely that's allowed in a democracy too?

Anyone who voted for that idiot should apologise, imo. ;D
-
No they shouldn't; we are all allowed mistakes and to change our minds.

She didn't and couldn't as she's a citizen of Canada. Regardless, she can say what she likes (conditions apply). We're also free to respond as we like (similar conditions apply).

No, the article makes it clear that it is something she might have done if she had a vote, which she doesn't.

When I first read the heading, I thought she was apologising for that awful wailing sound she makes they often refer to it as though it were music and then you hear people mumble something about country and western?
Trump is brash, he is there as president, I'd prefer to look back on his works when he's done with that job, he certainly is different.

Oh well, she didn't & couldn't, there was a time when she thought she might. Not big deal imo even if I don't understand it.

Aw ippy,she's great! A subjective opinion of course as is yours.

He is all of that alright. Yet I feel he doesn't really have such strong opinions on a personal level, just spouts what his voters want to hear. Or what he thought would get him votes.
