It's impossible not to think about Jill Stein when discussing Ralph Nader's op to destroy Al Gore. Jill Stein also ran for the Green Party. She also hurt HRC on both vote totals and attacks from the left. thehill.com/blogs/blog-bri…
Any sane person asking WHY would a supposedly liberal woman run a campaign that favored Trump over HRC? There's only two answers: 1) she's completely oblvious; 2) she intended to harm HRC. Spoiler alert - she intended harm.
And just this week, she tripled down with harm: falsely equating dems and trump on warmongering; falsely equating dems and Trump the environment; and (ffs) "yes we're doomed.
And here she is taking sides with two enemies of democracy that have the gall to conduct hacking operations and cooperate enemy intelligence while hiding behind a "free speach" banner.
Here's my piece on Nader
So there's two great examples of "liberals" intentionally Democrats and giving us the worst kind of Republicans and trumpists. We know the evil ones will do it again. WHO IS RUNNING IN 2020 AS AN OP TO HELP TRUMP?

I want to expand on this point for a moment. The horrifying falsehood of "Government is the problem." A thread. @ericgarland a nod for your inspiration.
Back in the day, the previous (before Trump) hero of modern Republicanism said: "Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem." IN HIS F'N INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
If you are not a loathsome traitor, this is hard to square with Lincoln's Gettysburg Address: "that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. (F Reagan)

In between Bolton bombs, I did two threads on intentional efforts on the left to divide the party and benefit Trumpists. I did not get to @AOC , but I did touch on Jill Stein, Ralph Nader and Bernie.
Meet Ralph Nader, never too old to be an asshole.
And of course Jill Stein. No shame in using your womanhood and "liberal" credentials to help Trump beat @HillaryClinton , right?

Huddle 'round ye fans of @SenSanders @TulsiGabbard ; You despise American failure to address climate change; you hate the endless wars. I DO TOO. This thread will tell an important story.
The year is 2000 and Al Gore (D) is the D up against George W. Bush (the 2nd Bush) for POTUS. You have no doubt heard of Al Gore - VP to B. Clinton, climate change activist. Harvard educated, he still enlisted in the viet nam era army.
Al Gore was the first American politician to raise global warming - back in 1989 on NPR and in the NYT - that's when I remember first becoming aware of the risk. Gore made that his life's first mission and a central plank in his 2000 Campaign. npr.org/2015/12/28/461…

Green parties have made historic gains, according to the latest forecast.

Overall, the left and the centre have gained ground, prompting speculation about a reshuffle of the multi-party government.

swissinfo.ch/eng/politics/s…
Projection: left-wing Green Party wins 13% of the lower house vote – up nearly 6% on 2015, their best result ever. The centrist Liberal Greens are also set increase their share to 7.9% from 4.6%.

The right-wing People's Party to remain the largest group. Social Democrats second. Screenshot of graphic of results according to the 3rd projection from the page linked in the previous tweet
And here's👇🏽the head of the Greens this evening on the possibility of altering the composition of the multi-party government for the first time in years.

Note Switzerland has 2 Green parties: the leftist Greens (bigger) and the centrist Liberal Greens.

En 1975, si no mal recuerdo, Luis Echeverría se quiso aventar la puntada de cambiar los parámetros para definir qué era "pequeña propiedad" y qué era "latifundio", lo cual habría obligado a los dueños de la tierra a hacer mil maromas legales para conservar sus tierras...
Echeverría, cual era su costumbre, envío a sus operadores políticos a sondear el terreno, ANUNCIANDO que la reducción de la "pequeña propiedad" sería modificada "en beneficio del pueblo", y que la revolución, y que sus nalgas guangas, y zas!
El más entusiasta matraquero de esa "buena" nueva fue Augusto Gómez Villanueva, uno de los más rastreros chalanes de Echeverría, inventado por éste como "líder campesino" a pesar de no haber visto de cerca un arado en su pinche vida.

🌎Donald Trump—🌪️Roger Stone—🔥Paul Manafort—🌬️Roy Cohn
There are so many connections between these four gentlemen, but the common thread between them all appears to be Roger Stone.

washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/…
🔪But Stone’s rules: “Attack, attack, attack—never defend” and “Admit nothing, deny everything, launch counterattack.” This “advice” came via renowned attorney Roy Cohn, who represented Donald Trump late in Cohn’s life.

vanityfair.com/news/2017/06/d…
🌬️Cohn’s "original" 3-dimensional strategy via @vanityfair article: 1. Never settle, never surrender. 2. Counter-attack, counter-sue immediately. 3. No matter what happens, no matter how deeply into the muck you get, claim victory and never admit defeat.”

🍊Sound familiar?

Had Al Gore been president on 9/11, I truly believe he'd have used the unbelievable unity we had in the wake of that tragedy to build support for a massive, New Deal style investment in renewable energy - wind, solar, infrastructure...
It would have done three things: 1) Freed us from our reliance on middle east oil & strengthened our hand in dealing with terrorism; 2) Created millions of jobs; 3) Helped with climate change.
Instead, we had George W. Bush, whose response was 1) to tell us to "go shopping," and 2) to invade the wrong country, at the cost of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars.
