‘Useful Idiot for Russia’: DNC Decides to Go Off on Jill Stein

Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, said via email that “the Democratic Party has no respect for actual democracy or the voting public,” calling the attack a “tired and sad commentary on a party that refuses to serve the American people with good public policy.”

Yes, this is true.

“We’re seeing a desperate empire now. We are seeing a desperate colonialist settler empire whose ways of the world and whose control over the world has been lost,” Stein said as she inveighed against U.S. healthcare, housing, and military policy.

This is also true. But she has no shot at winning and is literally only capable of helping the orange bad. We need rank-choice voting. Until we get that, she should shut up and drop out. Especially with the threat of the orange bad.

The people who vote for her seem like the useful idiots to me, she herself more seems like a traitor to the old values of her country and the purported causes of her party. She loves foreign autocrat dictatorships and there's nothing green about helping republicans win elections.

Maybe she wouldn't be so popular among Muslims if, you know, Dems weren't erasing their existence. Just Sayian.

Jill is here to collect some donations then disappear for 4 years. Again.

I doubt anyone dumb enough to vote for Stein are Harris voters anyway. So now than likely a vote for Stein will be one taken for Trump. So Trump and Putin can waste all the money they want on her campaign.

Forget debates. I would pay good money to see an episode of Jeopardy with Harris, Stein, and Trump.

It's funny because if Democrats just did what people wanted in the first place people would vote for them

i'm glad the "you're pro-genocide if you vote anything but 3rd party" morons finally shut the fuck up around here

edit: LOL

have you had ANYONE turn around and say " you know what, you're right!" on lemmy? or ANYWHERE?

Narrator: the DNC is correct.

Jill has ruined a lot of credibility.

There’s photos of Shill Stein dining with Putin. How much more evidence do you need?

Universalmonk bouta flip a table.

Anyone in this thread supporting stein is a bad actor. She will not win. Voting third party for a presidential candidate is the definition of meaningless and if you’re even vaguely left-leaning just vote for the non fascist-incompetence candidate.

If you’re genuinely set on voting for Jill Stein, ask yourself: how many other Green Party candidates have been elected to state houses and judiciaries around the country in recent years then stop and ask: how incredibly stupid are you?

No news about third parties when they were not threat for red and blue

The DNC screwed themselves forcing a drug Baron on their public. Jill Stein isn't a traitor to the Republic like The Entire Democrat Party is, so she has a very cromulent chance, and a valid campaign unlike the Traitors to the Republic Democrats. Their scared ff Jill Stein because they made a shitty decision and it's haunting them that they forced it on us. Eat a bag of cheetos dicks, Traitors to the Republic garbage. I look forward to your trial.

They’re not wrong, but they could stand to recognize that some of their own policy shortcomings opened the door to her challenge.

She is their stooge.

Russia is bad and all, but she's much more directly a useful idiot for Republicans who are not only more directly focused on directly harming the people Stein's campaign is targeting, but have a significantly greater ability to actually accomplish it. No one needs to trust the US establishment that Russia is bad, they know Republicans and how they're bad.

Also, DNC, why are you making this news on The Bulwark? Way to undercut your message.

Is the DNC actually trying to woo Stein voters? They could shift swing states into Blue States, but for some reason they think bashing her will get her voters?

Has the DNC learned nothing from 2016?

If all you have is "Russia" lol

Seems a little cruel.

Her policies are far better than the DNC's, though I understand that part of being a candidate with zero chance to win is being able to say whatever you want without consequence.

I don't think there's any pragmatic reason to vote for Stein, since it's so incredibly important that Trump not win, but I think calling her a useful idiot isn't helpful.
