Not only did he do everything in service of the US empire, but there's not a single notable politician who disagrees with him or his agenda because it's also their agenda. Was he just the Trump before Trump, being indifferent about the optics?

Well, a lot of liberals like Henry Kissinger. His endorsement was sought out by the Clinton campaign in 2016. He was very popular among those in power for a very long time and that definitely includes establishment democrats. I think your average democrat voter simply never thought of Henry Kissinger positively or negatively.

If they dislike him now, it's probably because he's dead and irrelevant.
