    In a stunning turn of events, Jill Stein has won the majority of electoral votes as the Democrats and Republicans have spent the last year kicking each other off the ballots for a change, leaving it wide open for a 3rd party challenger.

      First we'd have to also disqualify the propertarian "Libertarian Party" candidate, whomever that fuck is going to be this time around (no leftists trolling that primary this time around, unfortunately; not even Vermin Supreme). Because we live in a timeline where even that joke of a fucking party gets significantly more votes than anything even vaguely leftist.

        Yeah but if they're disqualify candidates for whatever arbitrary reasons what's stopping them from doing that to any American-left parties?

          Yeah, of course. Leftist parties would absolutely be the first to go, if there was any chance of them getting anywhere. LOL. Putting up with this shit is a terrible idea, "even" if it's Trump they are "disqualifying". Eugene Debs being able to run from his prison cell was, in fact, a good thing.

          I was just playing along with the hypothetical.

          That would 100% happen regardless. That would have happened anytime in the last 100 years
