Stop calling it Alt-Left. “Alt-right” is code for White nationalism/Nazism...so what would the left wing alternative be?

I’m all in for a recount, as things seem not quite above board. But Jill Stein should NOT be the impetus for this. Everything she touches turns to shit. I get the guilty conscience theory, she fucking should have a guilty conscience. She siphoned off votes from an actually qualified candidate and the first woman who…
If you didn’t vote for Clinton, Trump is on you. The only reasons for a progressive to not vote for her were lies, made up and spread by the Right and adopted by the far-far Left because they were butthurt about Bernie.
Even if there was hacking, a recount won’t reveal that. This was a very smart ploy by Jill to get a lot of names and email addresses, and a very dumb move by Democrats who are now thinking about this instead of how to fight.
You should report it to the DOJ because that is voter fraud and you are a witness. The DOJ is specifically asking for reports to be directed to them of any specific complaints. You’ll have to name names and identify yourself and the others. So, be prepared to do that and to describe what transpired at length.
Yup. Agreed:
Yep pretty much. Some people wasted some money to temporarily feel better about the election. I can’t really blame them, I’ve done worse with alcohol.
You should be nothing, really. Just watch the process, which Jill has facilitated in order to get publicity for the Greens (good move), and understand that it won’t change who is president. *Shrug*
None of the above.
Hillary hasn’t broken a single law. The Clinton foundation is literally the gold standard for how to run a foundation. What she is is a ruthless campaigner and competitor. The word “crooked” simply doesn’t apply to her. It’s a word dreamed up by Trump, and to my ever-lasting embarrassment, adopted by the far-Left of…
That “Crooked Hillary” nonsense has really been eating at me lately. First there was all the Trump Foundation improprieties, where almost all of the money went to fund either legal fees or other family obligations. Second, Trump’s National Security Advisor, Mike Flynn is a whole ‘nother level of crooked:
Except Russia was literally caught hacking voting systems and vendors by the FBI in August through October.
Hot take: not going to change the outcome but if it uncovers anything actionable for future elections (individual cases of tampering or fraud) it will be helpful. Also thanks Jill Stein for caring NOW. Best tweet I saw on the matter:
Yes, and I think this goes for a lot of voters in general. I am a Clinton supporter and happily voted for her in the primaries and general election, however, I do come from a social scene that was allllllll about the “lesser of two evils” stuff. All the way up until the election these people were posting about how…
Look who’s got buyer’S remorse! At least Bill Weld had the decency to realize he had made a terrible mistake before the election. Jill Stein is trying to save face. That is all.
I’m thinking she’s going to pocket the money and run or she’s just trying to milk this for attention....or some combination of both.
I’d be delighted to see Trump actually lost the electoral vote to go along with the popular vote, but if that was the case how do you see that playing out? Think the Donald and his supporters will just be like oah gee what a goof up oah well? Not to mention the implications of proving Russia interfered with one of…
It’s actually a really smart move for her. It’s free P.R. for the Green Party, plus she gets credit for lefty solidarity (something the Greens get criticized for a lot). She knows the Dems can’t request it without undermining faith in the electoral process further, so she’s saving them from that. There’s almost zero…
Donald Trump is probably secretly donating at this point.
Not really. The Republicans won and the Democrats aren’t going to actually physically fight over it. If the Dems “steal” the election though, that will end poorly.
