(841 posts)I hate to say it but the media was always going to be attracted to the Trump circus. Trump is a flamboyant celebrity so he was always going to get tons of free coverage. It doesn't make it right and I think the MSM overstated Clinton's negatives to make the contest a horse race for views and clicks but that doesn't excuse Russian meddling or Stein's role in giving us Trump.

Indeed, at this point, offering to send any funds to Stein would appear to be money down the drain for Moscow. By all appearance, Stein seemed more than willing to spout Kremlin talking points at every turn and all, it appears, for free.
To be sure, Stein received a wealth of support from the Kremlin propaganda channel RT. Not only was her campaign, as NBC noted, heavily promoted by RT, but she opted to participate in the 2016 Green Party presidential debate, broadcast on RT. Where other Green Party candidates boycotted the debate because it was hosted on a Russian propaganda channel one candidate described it as the worst kind of representation of what the Green Party should be Stein instead lauded the hosts, describing the debate on RT as a step towards real democracy and an inspiration for
millions of Americans.
Of course, Steins most prominent moment during the presidential campaign came via RT and through an intersection of the Trump campaigns relationship with Russia. In late 2015, Stein memorably joined Michael Flynn who recently pled guilty for lying about his interactions with Russian officials and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow at a gala celebrating the ten-year anniversary of RT. Stein later described the attendant RT conference as inspiring.
Stein also shared the conference billing with Julian Assange whom Stein in 2016 hailed as a hero in my book, and who, remarkably, even made a speaking appearance at the Green Partys convention.

(13,340 posts)Why has she consistently tried to poo-poo the Russia investigation.
Why did she enable Donald Trump's victory.
