Jean-Luc Mélenchon is a trot/sucdem but he is fairly anti-imperialist (though I imagine he has shit takes of french colonialism) and has a reasonable shot at being president so him saying this is a good thing.
How can you be a trot or a social-democrat? That seems completely impossible.
You would think so but in Europe that's fairly common. A lot of former Trotskyists transitioned to social-democracy after 1989. Most "Euro-communist" parties today are socdems with Trot origins.
