Green politicians from across Europe on Friday called on U.S. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw from the race for the White House and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris instead.

“We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House,” Green parties from countries including Germany, France, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Ireland, Estonia, Belgium, Spain, Poland and Ukraine said in a statement, which was shared with POLITICO ahead of publication

    I can point you in the direction of the information, I can’t understand it for you. If you read about the former KGB agent that has been using the dictatorship play book for a couple decades and can’t figure out how someone like Jill Stein is a patsy, I don’t have the crayons.

      Her being a patsy would be an entirely different claim than her being a consensual and willing Russian asset.

        The comment that kicked this whole thread off said she was his puppet. Seems like you’re the one that jumped to “consensual and willing Russian asset”.

        You recognize that the electoral system is fucked enough that it doesn’t matter if it’s Greens, Libertarians, Communists, they all are relegated to the role of spoiler candidate purely from a game theory perspective? If she actually wanted to enact change her entire campaign would be focused down ballot where it’s viable to get some ground, rather than taking on the role of the dog chasing the garbage truck that is the presidency. Whether she is knowingly helping Trump or Putin doesn’t matter, the end result is still the same.
