    Everyone defending Stein needs to ask themselves why in the world they would ask for votes for trump if you aren’t voting green.

    There’s only one answer and just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s not true.

      Look I’m not the smartest person but I genuinely don’t know what the answer is. Can you tell me what page of the back of the book it’s on?

        The answer is that Jill Stein is almost none of the things that people are accusing her to be in this thread. She didn’t tell anyone to vote for Trump over democrats. She isn’t Putin’s puppet or a Russian spy just because she had dinner at the same table as Putin once. She never was anti-vax (i think she said people should be allowed the freedom to choose for themselves). She isn’t a spoiler candidate and voting for her isn’t a vote for trump.

        All this shit is propaganda that’s worked very well on democrats in the US.

          Oh she’s definitely a spoiler candidate, the question is whether she’s doing so intentionally.
