‘Useful Idiot for Russia’: DNC Decides to Go Off on Jill Stein - eviltoast
The committee has largely kept quiet about the Green party nominee. But that’s now changing.

“Jill Stein is a useful idiot for Russia. After parroting Kremlin talking points and being propped up by bad actors in 2016 she’s at it again,” DNC spokesman Matt Corridoni said in a statement to The Bulwark. “Jill Stein won’t become president, but her spoiler candidacy—that both the GOP and Putin have previously shown interest in—can help decide who wins. A vote for Stein is a vote for Trump.”

    We have given Israel over $300 billion in weapons and support since their creation. It’s not going to stop.

    The sunk cost fallacy is no reason to continue furnishing supplies for an ongoing genocide.

      I agree it’s no reason to continue and they should have been cut off decades ago, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to stop.

        It’s still completely fair to call what Democrats are doing supporting genocide. They know it’s a genocide, they know the weapons will be used for genocide, and they supply them anyway. The Leahy Law exists for this exact reason, and they’re ignoring it.
