“I certainly agree with RFK that there was illegal collusion here between the two candidates and CNN. This is basically illegally political coordination and we too, have now just filed a complaint with the FEC as well,” Stein told Scripps News.

I don’t think Trump and Biden would coordinate on anything together.

They coordinated on the debate rules enough to agree to a debate.

That said, Green Party is an absolute joke,

If the Greens had ever managed to get serious support, I'd agree... they never have.

2020 - Howie Hawkins - 407,068 votes - 0.26%
2016 - Jill Stein - 1,457,218 - 1.07%
2012 - Jill Stein - 469,627 - 0.36%
2008 - Cynthia McKinney - 161,797 - 0.12%
2004 - David Cobb - 119,859 - 0.10%
2000 - Ralph Nader - 2,882,955 - 2.74%

6 elections, four of them you got less than 1/2 a percent. You are not a serious party.

I wouldn't judge a party's seriousness on popularity alone.

But I see what you're saying. Wanna debate? Get the numbers.
