It has been said a gazillion times over the last few months, but is it getting through to those who need to hear it?

    She is funded by republicans and has no experience in government whatsoever. She is utterly unqualified for running the most powerful country on earth. She literally only exists to take votes from democrats.

      Now, now… She did win a seat in the Lexington town meeting in 2005. :)

      "2005 Lexington Town Meeting

      In 2005, Stein set her sights locally, running for the Lexington Town Meeting, a representative town meeting, the local legislative body in Lexington, Massachusetts. Stein was elected to one of seven seats in Precinct 2.[156] She finished first of 16 candidates, receiving 539 votes (20.6%). Stein was reelected in 2008, finishing second of 13 vying for eight seats.[157] Stein resigned during her second term to again run for governor.[158]"

        I’m not talking about republican-leaning citizens, I’m talking about the literal Republican Party funding Stein. Trump’s personal attorney Jay Sekulow has represented Stein in various court cases around this election.

        So this whole, she isn’t the “establishment” thing

        nice straw man.

        Are you saying she doesn’t have experience on being a corporate puppet like establishment politicians do? And that is a bad thing why?

        I’m saying she literally has no experience with how government works, in any aspect. She’s a physician. She has no law degree, no experience in legislation at any level, no experience in administration at any level. No foreign policy experience at all (except dining with Putin). I’d sooner vote for AOC to be president than Jill Stein.
