Sometimes water is wet, no matter who says it. I'm not your dad, I'm not telling you how to live your life - if you want to vote fo Stein as a protest vote I think that's perfectly reasonable, even despite all of this.

Remember, if a president tries to do anything meaningfully against the status quo in any useful way, the CIA takes them on a convertible trip through Dallas.
