Trump says he would likely take dirt on Dem candidates if foreign Gov't offered it.

...so the likelihood of anyone here being on the "left" is thus very small.

And on that basis, you self identify as being right wing.

duh.
The fact that most here, like most people, are to the left of nationalistic facist rwnj does not perforce make them "lefties".

More chance of lefties being on Frothers than in SWP.
SWP is mostly MI5 officers pretending it's still going to keep the expense claims running and avoid going back to their wives.

Lol - probably true, or was it the Worker's Socialist Party ?
ahh no - was probably thinking of a few ppl I knew at Uni who were connected to or in the RCP.

Biden would turn it down?
Would Hilary? Mayor Pete? Bebop?

Encouraging foreign governments' interference in your democratic process and acting on it after the event are hardly the same thing.
Politicians should at least have the decency to pretend to have scruples.

Ah! The dear old RCP - Claire Fox is now propping up the Brexit Party's attempt to appear moderate - I suppose a 'thinker' who was a revolutionary communist (and two of her friends form the old days James Heartfield and Dr Alka Cuthbert are also on board as Brexit Party MEPs) balances out a rabid capitalist agitator who used to be a commodities broker.

Maybe the Yanks are right and Hitler was a lefty - whaddya think Claire?

Trump is only being honest - it's what the CIA have been doing through the National Endowment for Democracy for the last 36 years - 'helping' anti-government forces in gosh! nearly everywhere. He's letting the opposition have a fair go - except it is America's opposition - not his.
The CIA used to do it themselves but the NED is a private not for profit subverter and as such much more ideologically sound than a government agency.

Now Mike Pompeo says he won't let Corbyn be elected as PM the UK can offically join the long list of places where America's vote outweighs democratic choice.
