Dennis Kucinich Endorsed for Ohio Governor by Our Revolution

[peggysue2]

Sorry, but anyone in doubt that Nina Turner and the Our Revolution folks have gone off the rails need take a look at their fav Dennis Kucinich and his attitudes about the Trump/Russia investigation:

A Deep State Plot to Undermine the Trump Administration.

Sound familiar? As in Alt-right theory. Listen to Dennis and then think about the horseshoe theory of politics in the wild, in the flesh, in our faces. And in our elections.

This is how our efforts could become divided, once again.

Let's not let it happen! 2018 is the most important election of our lifetimes. This sort of nonsense cannot and will not stand.

1. OFFS!

2. ..well i'm sure he'll be a credit to their cause.

Did they say why?
ffs

Edit to be serious.

4. Presumably,

Kucinich is still considered a progressive firebrand who will stand with working families. That's the position he always took in the past.

However, his appearances on Fox News sounding like a conspiracy theorist--Deep State Stages Coup Against Trump Administration--taints his progressive creds in my mind.

In fact, any Trumpster-hugging is an instant black mark as far as I'm concerned because the man (Trump) is a complete disaster--for the working class, for everyone. The details piling up on the Trumpster is not because he's an innocent lamb stalked by the Big Bad Wolf. It's because he's up to his neck in sludge.

Under the circumstances, Kucinich was a poor choice/endorsement by Turner and her group. Unless they think that appealing to Trump supporters in Ohio will win them the primary then all bets are off.

All I see it doing is splitting the Democratic vote. Again.

7. And that is now & has always been their goal.

I would like to know who's behind the "revolution".

Same money that fuunded the Tea Party?
Its that horseshoe theory of politics.

Imo

3. That is really strange

He seemed like a good guy in the 2004 primaries. I think his wife had some questionable statements on social media as well that seemed odd.

According to this article, Kucinich supports gun control measures opposed by his opponent Cordray.

6. I had a private lunch with Nina in 2015.....

She was pitching the Ohio Democratic Party and was seen as a rising star with a bright future. How times change.

8. Yes. And she grabbed an endorsement from her old friend Bill Clinton.

Bite the hand that fed ya Nina.

Seems like a pattern with the revolution group.
Oh well.
Best of luck to them

9. I thought he had moved to another state?

Always thought Dennis was a few fries short of a happy meal tbh.
