It was not pretty when Rove used and funded Nader in 2000. As a result of people like Michael Moore and Bill Maher, we got Citizens United, the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and the invasion of Iraq. In 2016, Putin funded Stein and used WikiLeaks to defeat Hillary Clinton and as a result of Susan Sarandon, Cornel West, the DSA and others we got TFG which in turn lead to the gutting of Roe and the most corrupt SCOTUS in history.

Putin, Bannon and Stone are counting of people not caring about democracy and are happy that there are people who will not opposed their evil plans. I am glad that you are happy doing nothing to oppose the efforts to destroy our democratic form of government.
