Does anyone else see the hilarity and irony in Jill Stein running for president, taking votes away from Hillary and then turning around after the election and raising money for recounts in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania so that Hillary can win when Hillary might have won in the first place if Jill Stein hadn't been on the ballot?

I also find it ironic that she's campaigning to have the votes recounted on behalf of Hillary after lambasting Hillary as a Wall-Street corporate crony.

She is a troublemaker. That explains hee.

She does not give one iota of **** in regards to Hillary. What she cares about is the environment. Borrowing the words from a recently elected simpleton, a Trump Presidency "would be a total disaster." At least when it comes to the environment.
 
It's not very likely that Jill Stein's presence was the spoiler. Johnson, perhaps in some respects, but not even there either.

So far it looks like a combination of Clinton campaign blunders (more so in retrospect), education gaps, and left-wing agnosticism toward the outcome did her in.

As far as Stein herself is concerned, I view her as much I do any another white hippie: a waste of time.

While that's one possibility, never underestimate the desperation that the isolation of 3rd party politics brings. These people tend to believe they're in it to win it and that their fringe ideas have merit.
 
I counted 4 threads on the recount nonsense. Did Hillary win yet?
 
This is the kind of thing Greens do. If Hillary had won and computer scientists were raising the same suspicions Jill Stein would likely still be asking for a recount.
