What the hell is the deal with some leftists and reactionary governments? It's only occasionally that this seeps into the 'real' public spheres, but online, esp. Reddit's socialism, LSC are obsessed with Assad, Putin, Zakharchenko, etc. My local DSA is fairly bad about it too.

Another politician for gullible faux progressives to fawn over, along with Gabbard.

It comes from antiestablishment tendencies, I think. American imperialism is bad, so those that stand up to it - like Assad - are good.

Isn’t Kucinich a Trump supporter?

Two Libertarian Party candidates, Travis Irvine and Bruce Jaynes are running in the general because the party doesn't have ballot access. Could this help Cordray in November?

Clearly if you oppose arming every Syrian jihadist, you must believe that the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

Yeah, it's not impossible, but right now the polling average shows Cordray ahead. And Ohio Democratic voters tend to be fairly moderate. Anecdotally, Dems I've talked to think Kucinich is a kook, and this includes Bernie supporters.

Well, I'm not all that sure actually. But I'm afraid casting yourself as a victim of the "establishment" and running far-left is now a winning concoction in Democratic primaries. We'll see what happens in the TX-07 runoff.

It probably is but other factors like candidate quality matter too, where Kucinich is not a well very good one.

Many, many Democrats hold that position. But very few go this far.

I'm also pretty sure that most "anti-establishment" candidates haven't spent most of the past two years shilling for Trump on FOX News and didn't issue a congratulatory tweet to Trump on his inauguration.

Nah, he's just concern trolling, methinks.

You've got it backwards. Putin is the enemy, and Trump is friends with him.

None of these bloody-knifed Democrats actually "oppose" Assad. They just want more body bags.

Because in jfern's warped worldview if you are opposed to a dictator who gasses his own people, that makes you an ISIS sympathizer and a neoliberal warmonger.

I suppose everyone who opposed the Iraq war loved Saddam, too?
