How Jill Stein and Donald Trump became allies of Vladimir Putin

Casey Michel writes: Last December, at a gala honoring the 10th anniversary of the Russian propaganda channel RT, Russian President Vladimir Putin nestled himself between a pair of visitors at the head table. To the presidents right: A former head of the USs Defense Intelligence Agency, known best for his hard-right views on Islam, which he would later compare to cancer. And to Putins left: The soon-to-be Green Party nominee for the White House, whose presidential debate would be carried on, of all things, RT.
The two Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, an adviser to Republican nominee Donald Trump, and Jill Stein, the presidential nominee from the Green Party chummed with Putin throughout the evening, later joined at the table by RT (formerly Russia Today) head Margarita Simonyan and then-Chief of Staff Sergei Ivanov. Soon, Putin took the dais, running through rote commentary on RTs accomplishments. When he finished, applause rang. Stein shook his hand. Flynn offered a standing ovation.
Within that gala, leading figures of Americas far-left, in Stein, and hard-right, in Trumps surrogate, found common cause. The bookends of the American political spectrum had gathered in Moscow, glad-handing with Kremlin officials. The two camps, aligned in post-fact views on American foreign policy, discovered themselves aligned in celebration of the Kremlins foremost foreign propaganda vehicle.
Unsurprisingly, the policy prescriptions of Stein and Flynn dont align on much else. As it pertains to Moscow, though, its clear that the distance between the Stein and the Trump campaigns have effectively disappeared.
