What happened with her? She seemed okay when she was running a few elections ago and had some support, but then went a bit off and I stopped following her.
It’s a well-established fact that a part of her social media campaign was funded by the Russians.
To be clear: I’m not saying she necessarily did all this in cahoots with Putin. Russia funded divisive ads that boosted Sanders too.
Regardless, Sanders quit the race whilst Stein did not. That means she acted as a spoiler candidate, where a vote for her means it’s more likely that a republican candidate wins instead, instead of the democrat candidate that a green voter is likely more aligned with. It’s an unfortunate effect of the two-party system.
Nonetheless, those effects are well-known and Stein had a snowball’s chance in hell of getting elected. She knew this, but decided to remain on the ballot anyway. Her candidacy therefore did help Trump win the election.

Apparently she received some funding that was traced back to Russia and is effectively acting as a spoiler candidate.

All you liberals have is a picture of her at a table with Putin as if Democrats you vote for haven’t sat at a table with Putin before

Excellent rebuttal backed with facts.
