Like most Americans, Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein is not a fan of Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic Party nominee.
Stein has even gone so far as to suggest that Clinton would be a worse president than the highly-unpopular GOP nominee, Donald Trump, because unlike the billionaire real estate mogul, Hillary has a record of taking “draconian” action in political office.
“Trump says very scary things — deporting immigrants, massive militarism and ignoring the climate,” said Stein during a recent interview with Democracy Now. “Hillary, unfortunately, has a track record for doing all of those things.”
Stein has attacked Clinton on an array of issues, including some that even Clinton’s critics in the Democratic Party have been reluctant to bring up, such as her email scandal and her coziness with billionaires like Donald Trump.
Stein has argued that, given Clinton’s record on issues important to progressives, Bernie Sanders should mount or join a political movement outside the Democratic Party establishment. The Green Party is urging Sanders supporters to switch their registration ahead of the election in November.
