Green politicians from across Europe on Friday called on U.S. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw from the race for the White House and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris instead.

“We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House,” Green parties from countries including Germany, France, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Ireland, Estonia, Belgium, Spain, Poland and Ukraine said in a statement, which was shared with POLITICO ahead of publication

    “why don’t those people just immediately and magically fix their problems?” -this guy

    I swear, some people should not be allowed to reproduce. Understand nothing, but the first to speak up and argue.

      All I said was that at the federal level abortion still is legal(which it is), and you just went on a tirade against me…

      lol, says the person ignoring the literal mountains of evidence saying an abortion ballot measure will pass literally in any state. it literally passed in kansas. Now if you want such a bill elect congress critters that will pass it. harris is immaterial until that happens. for some reason I doubt trump would veto such a bill; not because he said it but because he doesn’t generally care about shit unless it impacts him personally. But given congress has avoided passing such a bill in the past color me doubtful it will now. what else will they run on if not abortion and not trump? looks at harris’ policies

      frankly if abortion is your defining reason to vote for harris well shrug that makes you a single issue voter and I thought they were bad? but maybe I’m fairly indifferent since my state already has enshrined abortions as law and I can’t solve all the worlds issues. especially the ones that are easily resolved at the ballot box.

      so again, trump is an abomination, and learn to focus your efforts. harris isn’t some magic solution to americas problems. I’ll be over here getting ranked choice in my state.

        I’m sorry, let me just elect representatives in a different state, brb.

        If it was so simple, explain why it has taken so many state governments so long to do something about it? It’s almost like it’s way more complicated than you make it out to be. My state has abortion on the ballot this time around - I don’t expect it to pass. In addition, the state wants to make my harder for citizens to get further measures on the ballot. It’s like lots of us are working against the awful bodies of government. Imagine that. Land of the free, mmmmhm.

        Also lmfao, yes, mmhm, absolutely, I’m a single-issue voter. Honey, I’m gay as fuck, the day a baby pops out of my partners asshole because I knocked them up, the day I’m the fuck outta here. It’s almost like people with a broad worldview can have multiple issues they care about or something, and - stay with me here - they don’t need to be a member of an affected class to want to help them improve their lives and well-being. Crazy, right?

        The loudest people don’t have a damn clue what the hell they are arguing about, they just want to hear themselves speaking louder than others. “I got mine, suckers, ez pz” energy is strong with this one. It’s okay though, they are getting ranked-choice… aaaaaaaaany day now… (it’s okay, it’s ez pz)
