If the CHP really puts up Gül, they've lost me forever. I come from a CHP-family. They always had my vote (ok, the last two went to the HDP) but if they really dare this, me and the CHP are through.

I can't even imagine how somebody would come up with such an idea. Gül is one of the founders of AKP. As president, he signed every law put in front of him. He might seem more european, more westwards, but he is just like them. He's as responsible for what Turkey's become as RTE

I've been an open critic of the CHP's "opposition work". It sucks. It really does. Just think of them voting to lift immunities of HDP lawmakers, leading to Selahattin Demirtas' imprisonment. Or their calls to stay at home after the stolen referendum.

I think Kilicdaroglu is a very honorable, perfectly nice man. But a terrible, terrible politician for Turkey. He'd do a stellar job in say... sweden... or the netherlands. And although the CHP has many charismatic and more fitted potential leaders he. just. won't. go. away.

He wouldn't dare such shit there. He just plays and knows the audience.

It’s just depressing how, after the crackdown on the HDP, the entire spectrum plays to the cheap ultranationalist seats. Same as in Israel, I guess, but we don’t border Israel. I’m genuinely worried.
