Don't forget an endorsement from David Duke.
Don't forget harris openly taking money from a supremacist organization: aipac.
thats.. not how endorsements work. Endorsements dont imply any relationship.
I'm not saying that she isnt a peice of shit, she seems to be but we dont need to be making stuff up.
yes and no. this guy endorsing her is because he realizes she is their best shot at getting Trump to win.
On the other hand, if I had been planning on voting for her, (which I wasn't) and I found out the ex grand Wizard of the KKK was voting for her... I would at least question some things
It does not make sense for a career racist to publicly endorse someone at all. Maybe I don't have the right brainworms.
Even Donald. Repub voters are all bigoted as their primary motivation, so a racist endorsing Donald likely improves their opinion of him. But they already know Donald is a racist, so that's not new information. All it does is add a small speedbump to pretending he isn't racist.
I'm not making shit up.

That doesn't address what they said at all.
This should be the response to the comment from @[email protected]
Did Jill Stein disavow the endorsement? Stein's campaign says it wants nothing to do with the former American Nazi Party member.
According to herself it doesn't mean it isn't concerning or that she didn't earn it!
Yes, the third page of Google search says she did immediately. We should all be ask ourselves why and how this fact has been hidden in the conversations about this. Again, I'm not a Jill stein supporter, and I dont know if she's a Russian puppet. attending a RT dinner is suspicious, assuming people and media outlets arent just lying about what the event was about. If true its disqualifying in my book. But this David Duke thing that you are accusing her of, she clearly isnt guilty of in the way you see it.

A racist troll has “endorsed” our campaign to draw attention to himself, and certain smear merchants are happy to platform this troll to attack us. Of course, I reject any "endorsement" from a white supremacist like David Duke, unlike Kamala Harris who can't stop bragging about her endorsement from white supremacist mass murderer Dick Cheney."

Stein made a good point too about Dick Cheney. The guy is pure unfiltered evil and a war criminal, and everyone seems to have just sort of forgotten that.

Their last line is "we don't need to be making shit up" and the above poster showed that it was factual. It does address one part.
Not the first part about the mechanics of the endorsement but the final part, implying it's a lie that David Duke endorsed Jill Stein for president.
