Y'all remember that time Hillary lost the 2016 election and then joined that wacky Jill Stein, the Green Party candidate, in a recount effort that was certain to reveal massive voter “irregularities” they are quick to claim only happens when they lose? Yeah, Good Times, Good Times....
Clinton now claims that Jill Stein was, and remains, a Ruskie operative controlled by Vladimir Putin who was used to deny Clinton her rightful place as President of the United States, and she believes that the red menace is once again going to use a third party candidate to divide the left. Specifically she accuses US combat veteran Tulsi Gabbard of being a Putin puppet who is being “groomed” to damage the Democrats in 2020.
For the record, there have been third party candidates in almost every election dating all the way back to (at least) the early 1800’s. There may even have been some who weren’t Soviet agents. However, everyone, and everything, who had anything to do with a Democrat’s loss is now part of a Russian scheme. Hillary declares it, so that’s just the way it is.
For the record, Stein was on the ballot in 45 states in 2016. The Green Party, crazy though its members may be, has been around a long time. They’re not “Russian assets” any more than any other socialist, including Bernie Sanders, and Hillary didn’t seem to have a problem with them when they were launching their recount effort.
The bottom line is High-level Democrats, including Hillary, are trashing anyone who doesn’t 100% toe the official Dem line. You can agree or disagree with Gabbard on Syria, but there’s no evidence to suggest she’s some sort of Manchurian Candidate. Dems’ simply have no substantive attacks, so they’re trotting out Russia at every opportunity.
Unless they have some severe skeletons in their closets, Gabbard and Stein should sue the hell outta Hillary for defamation.
UPDATE: Tulsi Gabbard Responds
