And here’s me thinking that the Green Party was all about doing good for the environment. Boy was I fooled.

Yikes… to say with a straight face that Harris would be worse than Trump… I mean I really don’t like Harris but… HAVE YOU NOT READ A NEWSPAPER IN THE LAST NINE YEARS?!?!?!

And I think he might have to overcome the moral stain of re-electing genocide.

Newly-electing genocide should be just as bad.
Also, I’m glad he is taking up the crusade of defeating fascism that would not have existed if Harris were elected.
Thinking that Biden / Harris not stopping Netanyahu would be worse for Gaza than Trump actively and willingly eradicating them and even in this post ignoring that part of the equation, not a moral tradeoff a loss loss for complete and utter fools.

I could see someone argue that a Trump victory is “better” for the Greens because he’s just so bad that it could prompt more interest in the Green cause.
Harris, on the other hand, could have been viewed as “good enough” among left-leaning folks who wouldn’t support the Greens without some extra push.
“We had to destroy the country, so we could save it.”

Nit pick in that Jill Stein is not a Democrat. But she is an idiot saying the Darndest Things. So I guess it sort of fits this thread.

Before the election, I’d have called anybody considering Trump better or equally good for Palestinians a damned fool.
That’s before Trump openly, plainly, and repeatedly said he’s going to remove them, never return them, and seize their land.
But yeah Both Sides Bad buddy.

My stepmother hangs on every word Jo Jorgensen says and I tend to lean Libertarian so I decided to follow Jo Jorgensen a few days ago on Facebook.
Today… UNFOLLOW! I just can’t even.
She’s gone… ok to be fair not full MAGA, but she’s certainly all in on the idea that Harris would have been worse than Trump is.

I like the defense of “I don’t like that Elon’s running the government and illegally shutting down departments, but what’s the big deal? Kamala Harris also wasn’t elected.”
The difference is, Harris isn’t currently illegally shutting down the government.

Congressman Jason Crow publicly admitted to violating the Logan Act, with the intent to undercut the Trump administration.
If you’re gonna violate federal law, don’t post about it on social media.
Unless you are a Republican, in which case it is standard practice.

Could you post a link? A total of two people have ever been charged under the Act, the last in 1852. Neither was convicted. However with the Trump administration we may se a resurgence of prosecutions.
This is one of those good for me but not for thee things IMO.

You new here?
Didn’t Trump have calls with Putin, Orban, and others before he was even elected in November? Do we know what was discussed? Any concerns there?
Did Crow negotiate anything while he was there, or do you think showing up to offer “support” and post that on social media is a violation.
Keep doing your thing, this looks like a nothingburger.

Yeah Trump’s actions seem far closer to a violation of Logan than Crow’s although I admittedly don’t know enough about it to say exactly where the line is.
