    And this is exactly what’s wrong with the Democrats, and why Biden never should’ve run.

    Biden was there to beat Bernie.

    There is no party in the US to fight for regular people, so they didn’t vote.

    Greens are still here! I think we got 600,000 votes this year.

      A vote for Stein this year was a vote for Trump. Vote green in your local and state elections to get support growing, don’t vote for them for president when they aren’t even on enough ballots to win and the alternative is a literal hitler-worshipper.

      Edit - Stein was actually on the ballot in 38 states so she technically could’ve won. I was thinking of Claudia De la Cruz and the PSL party - I have the same sentiment with them this election. These two divided the left and only benefited Trump. Vote green or PSL in your local elections and grow support for the non-democrat left.

          Oh my bad - stein was actually on the ballot in 38 states so she could’ve won if she won almost all of them, but the chances of that are low enough to not even hope it could’ve worked.

      Fuck the Green party. Jill Stein crawls out of its crypt every 4 years to spend russia’s money and steal progressive votes away from the Democratic candidate.
