    I don’t blame Jill Stein for “stealing” votes from Hillary. Jill Stein is a horrible person with close ties to Putin and is likely a tool of the oligarchy. But I don’t “blame” her for being shitty, anymore than you blame a wasp for stinging. Hillary is to blame for the loss. She ran a bad campaign and was blindsided in several states because she treated 2016 like any other election. She fought hard for the nomination, and she shat the bed. It’s not Jill Stein’s fault that Hillary didn’t anticipate Jill Stein.

    I’m hoping Harris can learn from Hillary’s failures. Biden did.
