disappointing spoilers
Looking for a hero in a rhetorical sense if you have a sympathy toward “tilting at windmill”s figures amongst the third party candidates, you are forced to skip past Jill Stein. Pretend that is nothing untoward with the photograph of her dining with Putin, the symbol of just how everyone views her — Captured by Russia, main point of a campaign to undermine NATO and has a strong double talk hypocrisy in an ability to call Netanyahu a war criminal while qualifying anything with Putin. Individually, you can make policy arguments on what the US ought behave with respect with Israel and what the US ought behave with respect with Russia — it is just that when you lay it side by side it becomes revealing. But Jill Stein is then asked a rudimentary American government question. How many voting members of the U.S. House of Representatives there are. Her answer — “600”. Question mark inflection.
The big perennial candidate names of the past slotted as left-wing voices — Eugene Debs and Ralph Nader — they knew the House count.
This leaves us, probably, with the Libertarian’s Chase Oliver for any sense that something is right with no shot third candidate voices of conscience. A bane of the comments section of Reason magazine’s blog who are a bunch of Trump fans. They should love him, as his vaguely cultural left effects and disruptor of the dominant Mises Caucus overtakes make him more likely a draw for a couple otherwise Harris voters than a couple otherwise Trump voters.
Looking down ticket, the Libertarian candidate in Montana has a question — Why is Trump leading Biden in Montana by double digits while @SheehyforMT is tied with @jontester? He presumes to have an answer but his answer doesn’t account for the fact that he is way behind both of them not answers why he is tied with the Green Party candidate.
