If I remember correctly, Hilary lost to Trump in 2016 by fewer votes than were cast for Jill Stein.

In 2 critical states, Jill won enough votes to elect Trump. Which is what Putin—who hosted her at his table during the election—wanted. Bernie did the rest

Really!? Because she was the Socialist Candidate? I bet he did it to help Trump. Birds of a feather and all that.

Yes, IMO Green Party candidate Stein was a spoiler. I have seen reporting on Stein's connections with Russia, but I have also seen analysis from "Reason Magazine" that questions whether all of her votes would have gone to HRC.

Jill Stein was a spoiler and gave us Trump. Just like Ross Perot took votes from Bush SR in Texas. I don't think Clinton was wonderful, but in comparison to Trump, she would have been much less harmful. I bet Republicans gave Jill Stein money in WI.
