Hey Jill Stein, why is completely pulling out of NATO part of your otherwise almost 100% sensible progressive platform
JILL STEIN COME BACK

COME BACK
ANSWER ME
- I like how her solution to Russia/Ukraine is literally "if everyone else just leaves it will sort of solve itself". That's a direct quote.

  It’s just really fun pointing out how old Stein and Trump are.

Hmmm. I thought she was going to look for a Palestinian running mate.
I wonder if she couldn't find one.
