Flip flopping is saying, you have a link to Trump's accomplishments and not being able to cough it up when pressed for it. You were hoping nobody would ask, but when pressed, you flip flopped and burned yourself.
Saying, "elections are far away", so don't bet your money on PP yet, because polls say so, is not flip flopping. That is reminding you that the tide could turn any moment.
That has no connection to my demand that PP unveil his detailed platform, right now, when he is actively whining on social media and in the parliament about Trudeau being a terrible PM.
