Nonsense, that was not a controllable variable. The only controllable variable that made the difference was whether Stein was in the race or not. A person can always go back and find causes of one type or another and claim this is the reason or that's the reason. But none of that is scientific and it is all 2020 gobbledygook. Stein's third-party candidacy was real and in our face.

She should've quit the race when she saw the danger of Trump and pleaded with her people to vote for Hillary. Bill Weld sort of did that with the Libertarian party. If Stein was a true patriot, she would've put our country first and not her own ego needs.

That is exactly the same argument that Nader made. It is nonsense.

I was chastising the liberals for months before this election telling them that it was crazy to vote third party and that Stein was just like another Nader. What did people gain by voting for Stein? Exactly the same thing they gain by voting for Nader. Nothing.

I pointed out to people time after time that every single time in the last 50 years that either the Republicans or the Democrats split the vote the other party won. It was six times in a row at that point and now it is seven.

<<Stein didn't lose the election for Hillary - Hillary lost the election for Hillary. She lost it not because she had a personal email server - but because she lied to the American people when she said she handed over all her emails. Secondary blame rest squarely on the shoulders of the democratic party who coronated her rather let the American people pick the candidate. Super delegates!! Hillary lost the election because she lives in a bubble and has no idea where the working people of this country stand.
