āJill Stein is a useful idiot for Russia. After parroting Kremlin talking points and being propped up by bad actors in 2016 sheās at it again,ā DNC spokesman Matt Corridoni said in a statement toĀ The Bulwark. āJill Stein wonāt become president, but her spoiler candidacyāthat both the GOP and Putin have previously shown interest inācan help decide who wins. A vote for Stein is a vote for Trump.ā
Thatās power, bud, but itās misplaced. Itās Harris that has the power to respond to those voters, or to ignore them. As you mentioned, the cost of ignoring them could put a dictator in place.
Their vote puts a dictator in place and Harris is the bad guy for not stroking their egos enough? Gotcha.
Giving voters what they want and winning them over is āstroking their egosā now? Thatās such a cynical way to look at your fellow voting Americans. They are not your enemy.
Come on manā¦ they got us pumping anti-democratic sentiment like itās the divine right of kingsā¦ no fucking wonder the democrats donāt ever feel the need to run on actually popular policies and at least keep things centered. Weāre more than happy to deep throat the boot either way.
Candidates get themselves elected by pledging to address votersā concerns - if anyone has an ego here itās Harris and liberals like yourself who think they are owed votes they havenāt made any effort to get.
