I worry for her. She got into hot water once before for asking her advanced placement English students to express the way they saw America, through art. Parents (not of kids in the class) saw some of the art on a parent/teacher night, and you'd have thought she asked them to spit on the flag. These parents thought we shouldn't ask kids their opinions, but should rather just instill them with patriotic instruction. 🙄 I was worried it would never blow over. That was years ago. Today's MAGA would have run her out of town.

Europe's Green parties know Jill Stein is a spoiler for Trump. The idea that she cares what they think is laughable, however.

She has singlehandedly destroyed the brand in the US. Fortunately, our Aotearoa Green Party has not been tarred with this brush.
