  1. People voting Stein are so unserious and disengaged from the real world that I doubt any sort of outreach will help.

  2. > Republican Party of Wisconsin Chair Brian Schimming accused state Democrats of “bloviating about democracy” while smearing third-party candidates “in a desperate bid to disenfranchise inconvenient opposition.”

    Stein is not a spoiler, just a regular Trump supporter. Why didn’t she speak at the RNC — would’ve been so much at home!

    Mentioning her name is a mistake. Launch the same ad but against third party voting, saying the same thing: “Third party votes handed trump a victory in 2016: don’t.” Same target audience, same message, without giving others the idea of looking up this particular candidate to see what “he or she” stands for. Don’t fall into the Streisand Effect trap.

  4. Shameless parasite that we won’t hear from or about for another 4 years following the election.

  5. Stein is going to do much more damage to the Democrats compared to 2016, or even compared to Ralph Nader in 2000, especially because of her stance on Gaza.

    Her progressive voters KNOW that they help Trump win, but basically believe that there is no future for their agenda in the current Democratic Party and want to “punish” the “gatekeepers”.

    That said, Biden should indeed have done more to stop the war, if only to safeguard US interests, because the US’s reputation is the single greatest external loser of this conflict.

  6. Why doesn’t she campaign for electoral reform? She only appears every 4 years to help the GOP.

    OK, unpopular opinion, the Democratic Party should be trying to convince people to vote for them instead of wasting their time on Jill Stein. They should be attacking Trump instead.

  8. I see the confusion. The Green party in the U.S. isn’t named for environmentalism, the green party is the represention of an infection.

    I used to think well of them a long time ago. After what Stein has done she and the Green ( Getting Republicans Elected Every November ) Party can go to hell.

    They will never get any kind of support from me.

    This woman should probably be in prison. We got 2 people running in this election that belongs in a cell instead of on the ballot. The US really lost its footing somewhere

  11. 99% of 3rd party candidates are simply weapons to sway the outcome between the main contestants. They are intended to disrupt the election and nothing more.

  12. It’s a real shame the Green Party has been hijacked because the foundational principles of a technocratic eco-democracy are strong and could benefit our country.

  13. Aggressive-Will-4500 on

    She’s a candidate and just a spoiler with no intent to actually implement policy. How many more years is the Green Party going to continue tearing itself apart, supporting Stein’s vanity project, and helping to get Republicans elected as president?

  14. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.wpr.org/news/dnc-wisconsin-green-party-jill-stein) reduced by 86%. (I’m a bot)

    > National Democrats are launching an ad in Wisconsin and other swing states attacking Green Party candidate Jill Stein, calling her a spoiler candidate meant to hand the election to former President Donald Trump.

    > Wisconsin Green Party Elections Chair Pete Karas echoed Call's concerns and said while the DNC has blamed Stein for being a spoiler in 2016, the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate got more votes in Wisconsin that year.

    > The DNC claimed Stein can't legally appear on Wisconsin ballots because the Green Party doesn't have any statewide office holders or legislative candidates required to nominate presidential electors in the state.

    Fucking FINALLY. Fuck Jill Stein and fuck the aesthetics obsessed leftist posers who argue for her instead of seizing real political power through and within the Democratic party.

  16. SpiritedStylus on

    Jill Stein was the reason Trump won in 2016 and we’ll be damned if we’re going to let that Putin loving traitor do it again.

    Fuck Jill Stein and fuck all Jill Stein voters.

  17. Good Jill Stein is an enemy of the progressive movement. She only ever runs every 4 years to play spoiler for the benefit of the Republicans.

    If she and the Green Party were serious about their platform they’d be pushing candidates at the local level to build a power base for a Presidential run.

  18. Yikes. Usually the Dems don’t even acknowledge Stein. Harris must be polling terribly, especially on her left flank.

  19. Jill Stein is a Kremlin asset but I can’t help but feel that if any political party in this country would actually start listening the the electorate then it would be the most effective way to neutralize Russia’s propaganda

  20. Well, maybe support the Green Party down ballot. Oh…huh…no candidates…that sure seems odd.
