Stephen Harper spotted leaving the White House's West Wing

Source: CBC

Stephen Harper was spotted leaving the West Wing earlier today, but little is known about what the former prime minister said inside the White House.

Harper was expected to meet on Monday with Larry Kudlow — the director of the National Economic Council and U.S. President Donald Trump's go-to economic adviser — and John Bolton, the president's national security adviser, according to multiple sources who spoke to CBC News on the condition of anonymity.

An Associated Press photographer snapped a photo of the former Conservative leader leaving the White House, but neither Harper's team nor the U.S. administration has responded to CBC's requests for comment about what happened during Monday's trip to Washington.

Harper did Tweet Monday that he looked forward to meeting with more business and government leaders "to discuss the forces shaping our future," in a plug for his forthcoming book.

He wants some pointers on how to steal some election for the CONservative party of Canada.

That's not just hyperbole either. His party engaged in a lot of misleading (lying) phone calls to vulnerable people when he stole his second term. Calls that told folks to vote on the wrong day, in the wrong districts, etc.

Look up 'Pierre Poutine', the patsy they had take the fall for him.
