(5,648 posts)So those supporting Stein are justified because because others who might vote for Trump will vote for Johnson instead. How does that make any sense?
And by the way, there are states, including swing states, where Johnson takes as many or more votes away from Hillary as as Trump. That makes perfect sense when you think about it because the Libertarian ticket is socially liberal and fiscally conservative so they have the potential to to draw voters away from both parties. The Green Party pull voters away from only the Democrats.
In addition, take a look at Jill Steins total lack of experience in management and government offices. She would be defeated if she ran for one of the five places on the Board of Selectmen in her small down of 34K people.
And I guess it is okay that Stein accepted an invitation from the Russian governments propaganda ministry to visit Russia (a virtual dictatorship) where talked about social injustice in the United States.
