The Spin
Democratic narrative
Voters must realize that the Green Party presidential candidate, and well-known Russian state asset Jill Stein, is nothing more than a spoiler to take votes away from Democrats and help Trump win the White House — again. This course is all in plain sight, with Republicans and Trump donors supporting her.
Republican narrative
It's no surprise that Democrats have launched this attack on Jill Stein, as they had anti-democratically sought to remove her from the ballot in multiple states, so as to force her voters to support Harris instead. Ahead of a very likely Trump win in November, the Democratic Party is desperate — and will blame anyone else for their impending defeat.
