i don't know why it's so hard to just take him on face value: he got some concessions and he doesn't want trump to win. it's not that complicated. that doesn't mean i'd listen to him - because i don't believe her. but, we all know that an endorsement for jill stein is as good as an endorsement for donald trump. he's a senator. he has a certain responsibility to be responsible. he can't just be going around campaigning for protest candidates, fully aware of the possible consequences.

i mean, if there was some third option that could actually win, it would be a different story. he would then be endorsing clinton over that third candidate, and that would be egregious. but, that third option doesn't exist. it's really hillary or trump. those are your shitty choices.

i'm not a senator, so i don't have a responsibility to be responsible and i can go ahead and endorse stein, fully aware that it might elect trump. that's the freedom you have when you have no intention of actually running for office, right?
