“The election has already started. Absentee ballots have been sent. We need to catch up rapidly. We need everyone here to get active. We need to be clear about what our goals are. We are not in a position to win the White House, but we do have a real opportunity to win something historic, we could deny Kamala Harris the state of Michigan. And the polls show that most likely Harris cannot win the election without Michigan.”
Trump is actively attempting to court these dissatisfied voters. In September, he received the endorsement of Democrat Amer Ghalib, the Muslim mayor of Hamtramck, Michigan.
Many Arab American leaders, meanwhile, have strongly opposed a Trump presidency, citing his so-called Muslim ban on immigrants from several majority-Muslim countries.

…um, where is the second half of this article?
At this point I’m getting optimistic she’s stealing more votes from Trump than from Harris.
If you have a family member who supports Trump, it’s too late now to change their mind. Give Stein a shot instead - tell them all about how she hates Harris, is business friendly, is a version of Trump that is just slightly less of whatever your family member might not like about him.
Use her for what she’s worth. Get those Trump voters derailed.
No shit?
yea no fucking shit. and the “i’m not voting because of my MoRaAaAaAaALLLs” crowd will be here in about a minute to accuse everyone of literal genocide
Drag heard a great name for them today: Socialism Angels
They think that by choosing to abstain from democracy by not voting or voting third party, they’re not culpable for their country’s genocides. They can just sit on their clouds, polishing their halos, gloating about their moral purity, while Gaza burns.
Socialism Angels are the middle path
This might actually bring some of those people to vote for Harris. There’s a difference between high minded moralism and watching the worst case scenario happen. Like knowing something intellectually, and actually seeing it.
That crowd is so naive…the turnip has literally said Israel is going to slow…yet they’re willing to teach the dems a lesson by giving trump the presidency… I mean you can’t be that fucking stupid can you…
it’s actually a better scenario that they’re getting paid by russia, otherwise yes, they are that stupid. honestly both possibilities are equally plausible
Yeah. so if climate and peace are her two biggest motivations…
letting trump win… is not just counter productive. it’s suicide.
rational people know this. Jill stein is either not rational… or she’s bought and paid for by somebody who benefits from a trump presidency. Russia funds her campaign. she’s had lunch meetings with putin. she’s a russian stooge, pure and simple.
Yeah she’s a huge piece of shit and if I have to read anymore moronic comments about how voting for Democrats is about loving genocide I might go fucking postal.
Make sure you use the FREEDOM stamps! They won’t exist much longer.
NO SHIT.
Stein has only been saying this every day for a month. She should be facing legal consequences for running shoulder campaigns.
Quick question: is the US more or less democratic than if it were a one party state, and if the answer is more, then which other party is it that makes it more democratic?
You seem like someone who would do GREAT in politics, or very poorly in legal. What an absolutely well crafted thought and question.
You’re so special.
Roger that, you can’t answer because your worldview is incoherent.
Downvoters are welcome to answer the question too. Too bad none of them can either 💅
Ok, not a downvoter, but I’ll bite. A system with more than one party is more democratic than a system with a single party. Are you asking which of the two major parties in the US is the “second” party, making the US more democratic than if there were a single party? If so, I see why no one is answering. If not, perhaps you could clarify your question?
I’ll bite. The US is democracy version 1.5. One of the known issues of democracies before version 2 is that when a major party is falling apart it can seem like a single party system. However this is usually temporary.
Of course the recommended action is to upgrade to at least version 2 with proportional representation.
I say this all as someone who often supports the greens in my own country:
If they are even entertaining the idea of Harris losing being a positive for them, they are as deranged as Trump.
Trump gets in, we might as well start building bunkers, because climate change will accelerate under him, and these next 5 years are probably the most important if we’re going to stand any chance of turning this around.
I don’t know who still needs to see this, but: Voting Green in this election is the most environmentally damaging thing you can do aside from directly voting for trump.
If you vote green in this election, you will be directly responsible for everything that follows should Harris lose.
So, their goal is Kamala loses and Trump wins, then what? It’s almost like she never actually cared about the environment or workers and only ever wanted to be a spoiler for Kamala. Trump will get rid of the EPA and appoint oil execs in their spot.

It’s useful idiots all the way down.
All that this bitch is doing is damaging the Green Party’s reputation by being associated with it. She’s just as batshit as the GOP.
It’s interesting that we use the word “damage” to talk about making something worse, even if it should be worse. Bins are supposed to be full of garbage. If drag throws garbage in the bin, is drag “damaging” the bin? No, the bin is supposed to be that way. So that’s why it’s funny that we say it’s damage when Kshama Sawant makes us think less of the Greens. Sawant is being very logical and factual about what impact the Greens are really having. It makes us like the Greens less, but is that really damage?

Woah, you mean they can do that?!
