Trudeau: If Liberals vetted people before giving them powerful jobs, I’d never have become Prime Minister

– Under fire for not properly vetting before selecting her as Canada’s Governor General, pointed out today that too much vetting can actually be a bad thing, as would have likely prevented him from becoming Prime Minister.

“I get people are annoyed we didn’t hire a team of investigators to uncover every little skeleton in her closet, like a domestic assault charge or the fact that she killed someone with her car,” said . “But if had looked too deep into my background of doing brown face multiple times they never would have made me Leader, and then Prime Minister!”

“And I think we can all agree that would have been a tragedy for our country. Right guys?…Right?”

Many in the PMO say they employed the same system with Payette that they originally used when Trudeau was running for leader and everyone agreed to ignore the story about him groping a reporter. This included asking how good Payette was at symbolic gestures and inquiring whether she would “be cool?”

“I just don’t know how our system let us down. We’re the . We’re not used to scandals,” said chief of staff Katie Telford.

The Liberals are planning a much more intensive investigation of their next candidate, which will include deep background checks and interviews with former co-workers, unless wants the gig in which case fuck it he can start tomorrow.
