      He’s a “right winger” who endorsed Bernie in the primaries and voted for Jorgenson in the general elections. Seems like you really want to simplify a nuanced issue as much as possible, I understand that feeling, but the truth is not black and white.

          “When the JRE sends its fanbase, they’re not sending their best. … They’re sending fans that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing stupidity. They’re bringing both-sidesism. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

        You say that as if this is some argument against him being a right wing grifter? He routinely pushes right wing bullshit. Thats what makes him a right winger, not wether or not he (claims) votes for the main right wing party, or some useless 3rd party right wing party.

      He is left wing. Seeing him as right wing is a common misconception driven by clips of him on social media.

      He supports Bernie Sanders and thinks Obama was the greatest president ever. He has refused brining trump on the show. Just a couple examples.
