[Me.]

1. Did She Ever Have It?

[scscholar]

57. After hearing her talk about healing crstyals and anti-vax...

I think you're correct.

[yardwork]

2. Disgusting. Really, really disgusting.

[Rex]

32. I never heard of her until a month ago.

All politicians of every political stripe should now denounce Trump. She should, Johnson should, the entire GOP...anyone with an ounce of decency.

[madaboutharry]

3. She has extreme views.

I wasn't surprised to hear her say that.

[PJMcK]

4. Jill Stein just disqualified herself (n/t)

[groundloop]

44. Ehh.... she disqualified herself a long time ago with her anti-vaxxer BS

[geek tragedy]

5. Jill Stein is a political ally of Donald Trump.

They have a lot in common.

[Kathy M]

49. I have been thinking that also .....

I honestly do not trust what her campaign is all about especially when I saw a commercial the other night . Wonder where the money is coming from and who she is working for .

[LexVegas]

6. I love that Cornel West has moved to supporting her. nt

[Moonwalk]

39. Is Cornel West still supporting her? Didn't Ajamu Baraka, her running mate, say vile things...

...about Cornel? I mean, really dissed him.

[bluestateguy]

7. Trump is pro-Russia, Stein is pro-Communist

nt

[Doctor Jack]

17. She's an opportunist

and her supporters are hypocrites. There was a story I read, maybe it was on here, about how the Greens had their convention a few days back and talked about the evils of corporations, including corporate farms. Then a bunch of them went to McDonalds after for lunch. Its just bullshit like that which makes the Greens a joke. If you want everyone else to sacrifice and claim that you are so much better for the country that the dems and republicans are essentially the same, you have to spend at least 1 day practicing what you preach. Otherwise you are just a bunch of privileged assholes with too much time and not enough sense.

[lancer78]

37. Male Greens

just support those causes so that they can crush puss.

[billhicks76]

40. Dont Believe Everything You Read About McDonalds Anecdotes

I support Hillary 110%...but there will always be 3rd and 4th party candidates...especially now. Why people are so afraid of them I dont know. Bush wouldve stolen that election no matter what as the Iraq War and Patriot Act had been planned years before with strategies were already written and enacted. It's a fact that we could have already harmed the planet so much that recovery could be in question so the Greens have their place. Whining about such a minority opponent makes us look classless, weak and immature. Keep your eye on the ball. Trump is the issue. And its Gary Johnson who will peel most votes away...hopefully Republican ones. If Hillary truly wants to prevent him from peeling independents or single issue voters then why not get over the corporate yoke and support cannabis legalization already??? There are no good arguments against it and decades of suffering and oppression behind it's illegality. 1 in 8 smoke pot and 60% favor outright legalization with 90% supporting medical applications. Want to win people over and neuter 3rd parties and prove that winning our democracy back is #1 then simply do the obvious.

[spooky3]

8. She is entirely out of touch with reality. And besides,

the right comparison is the full set of what Trump has said and done and is likely to do, vs. the full set of what Clinton has said and done, and is likely to do.

[Jim Dandy]

9. Putin's Pride

Vlad is running two candidates this year.

[niyad]

15. welcome to du

[PJMcK]

26. Good point

And welcome to Democratic Underground, Jim Dandy. Keep posting.

[Orcrist]

10. And yet

we constantly have people on here chastising us for speaking ill of her. For her to defend Trump and his comments he made today tells you all you need to know about her and what her real motives are.

[niyad]

16. welcome to du

[MBS]

11. I agree completely.

Beyond lost it. She's always been Out There, but now she's gone beyond the solar system. Plus destructive

[Doctor Jack]

12. I really don't like her

I once knew an ultra hippy "naturopath", whatever that is, and she had the same holier than thou attitude about everything but was just like the rest of us. She chided people for eating garbage food but ate fast food all of the time. And talked about the evils of greed and corporations and material excess but lived in a big house and drove a fancy gas guzzling car.

Its easy to criticize but much more difficult to lead by example. Jill Stein is just an opportunist who is just like every other politician. Hillary isn't perfect but she also doesn't claim to be. She seems aware of her faults and her mistakes but keeps trying to improve herself. People like Stein claim to have all of the answers but can't spend even 1 day practicing what they preach.

[billhicks76]

41. So Hippies Are The Enemy?

So sick of this anecdotal garbage. I knew a school teacher once who was a hypocrite...so what? It's religious nuts and right wing fools we are fighting.

[EricMaundry]

53. Quite a few hippies became religious nuts and right wing fools

Jill Stein being a good example.

[EricMaundry]

60. I personally regard anyone who supports Stein or Trump ...

... to be a traitor to this country. Putin's useful idiots.

I'll be sure to add you to the list.

[MichiganVote]

13. This isn't Netflix Stein. Clinton has not killed anyone or threatened to kill anyone.

Another crazy. And you know, I support the idea of multiple parties but if this is an indication of who or what people will choose-count me out.

[Rex]

14. Anyone that endorses Trump is a moron.

After Trumps latest bombastic statement, every single American should denounce him. Stein and Johnson should come out and condemn his language as unpresidential. If they don't, fuck em they can join the folks that drank the kool aid.

[mcar]

18. That is revolting

Go away,Jill.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

19. Fuck Jill Stein

[Stuckinthebush]

24. And the Green Party

With their help we got W and effectively screwed their agenda for many years. Idiots.

[Maru Kitteh]

70. And the morally bankrupt, sanctimonious, puritopian children of privilege who vote green

knowing that the vulnerable of society will pay for their prideful, ego-driven vote.

[BobbyDrake]

20. Gary Johnson called himself the "middle lane" between the "extremes" of Clinton and Trump.

He SAYS he stopped smoking weed, but then he keeps talking and reveals he was lying!

[LenaBaby61]

21. Jill Stein Has Lost It!

As someone already said, has she ever HAD it?

Her VP pick has said some horrible things about Pres. Obama, former Pres. Bill Clinton and from all I've read, he's anti-Semitic, saying some nasty things about Bernie Sanders.

[Barack_America]

22. I actually have no words.

She and Trump can both go away and never be heard from again.

[pnwmom]

23. That is "actually" the kind of thing Nader used to say about Gore vs. Bush. n/t

[uponit7771]

25. What a stupid ass, even on Hannity they're saying tRump could've said it better !!

[Moonwalk]

36. Could have said better "shoot her and anyone she nominates for Supreme Court"?

I'm confused. How would those on Hannity have "said it better"? "We should create a well regulated militia to secure our states against Clinton and her nominees..."?

[patsimp]

27. Stein is disgusting.

[sarae]

28. She's such a tool.

[NurseJackie]

29. But we mustn't be too harsh on her ...

... we need the Green votes.

[jcgoldie]

30. She's been saying that bullshit for months

Fuck Jill Stein I have no respect for her.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

31. I honestly don't get her.

I also don't get the Green Party.

[Yallow]

33. Go Away Jill - You Are Destroying The Green Party

And you don't care.

[SunSeeker]

34. Anyone supporting Stein should be embarrassed. nt

[sheshe2]

38. JPR

[Rex]

46. No no, they are supporting Trump!

TRUMP! Every person with an ounce of decency should renounce him right now for their everloving soul. I'm being completely serious...they are getting schooled by a few Russian stooges.

This is hard to believe, but my CT side (spider sense) is going wild with thoughts of Russian mobsters, Putin, Asshat and Snowden. First the try at overthrowing our election, then this 'joke' about 'something happening' to HRC?

Nope, don't buy it...I feel this is very bad. I feel the Russians are trying to play us.

[Skittles]

35. who?

[billhicks76]

42. Exactly...People Here Are Afraid Of Their Own Shadow.

Its harmful to waste energy on Jill instead of Trump.

[Rex]

47. Trump is the atomic bomb. He is the real deal.

Just what the fuck is he trying to pull? Is someone paying him to incite violence among the uneducated voter base?

[billhicks76]

50. He Is So Absurd I Wondered If Bill Clinton Paid Him To Destroy The Repubs From Within

[Rex]

51. I think it is his ties to Russia, wanna bet his tax returns are evidence?

Yeah at first I wondered that too, did the Clintons plan something to destroy the GOP? No way this guy is real! Then with all the information about his foreign ties, one does have to ask where all his money is tied up.

Certainly ain't in paying the people that work for him!

[Chicago1980]

43. I know people who have her mentality and views.

There's no talking or rationalizing with them.

[63splitwindow]

45. Has she directly endorsed Don the Con or is she trying to be sneaky?

[catbyte]

48. She is really getting on my last nerve. She just needs to stfu already.

[still_one]

52. If MSNBS is giving this attention to Jill Stein, then they should start asking Stein tough

questions, such as why she won't release her Tax Returns

[sarae]

55. She won't release hers, either?!

So much for transparency!

She's doing a Town Hall on CNN, Wednesday Aug 17. I wonder if they take write-in questions, as well?

http://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2016/08/03/cnn-to-host-presidential-town-hall-with-green-party-ticket-on-aug-17/

[still_one]

56. Here is a link wich discusses that among other things

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/8/6/1557554/-Twelve-Reasons-NOT-to-Vote-for-Jill-Stein-Ajamu-Baraka

[sarae]

67. Thanks for the link...

interesting that she hasn't released since 2011.

[uponit7771]

62. +1, so the two folk leaning towards Russia wont release their tax returns !!! WTF?!!?

[still_one]

68. So much for full transparency

[scscholar]

58. I think you mean Microsoft NBC, and her tax returns...

would probably reflect poorly on doctors since they're so wealthy and make so much money that the AMA would be very angry with her if she released them.

[obamanut2012]

66. Stein is a multimillionaire on her own

Plus, you know there will be Putin money revealed, and her Big Pharma stocks, which are well known anyway.

[world wide wally]

54. Why don't these lazy assholes ever seem to run for anything but President?

How about going to the effort of getting elected to something local and building on it if you truly believe in it?

[JHB]

63. The Greens have had 20 years to form an effective lefty coalition...

...since Nader's 1996 run.

Do they have one? Nope. Bernie did a better job in just 14 months.

[obamanut2012]

64. As soon as I saw the pix of her in Russia with Flynn, I understood

She is being bad to be so awful. Probably by the same people paying Trump. And she doesn't care.

[jeanmarc]

65. Green Party always picks people that do no good for the country

I find her absolutely repulsive and I've only seen two interviews.

Clean it up, Green Party. You still have a lot to explain for with Nader getting Bush elected.

[cleveramerican]

69. Unmet potential

She could have done so much more and never will.
Ma. Folks have known her to be erratic at best.

[lame54]

71. Sounds like she is setting to herself up...

to step in if The Donald drops out
