Rachel Maddow: Why is Jill Stein so quiet about the Trump-Russia scandal? [View all]

Rachel Maddow: ‘Why is Jill Stein so quiet about the Trump-Russia scandal?’
By Sky Palma Posted on February 20, 2017

During an appearance on VICELAND’s Desus & Mero, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow pointed to a certain political figure who’s been largely silent during the Trump-Russia debacle.

“So everybody’s like, ‘Wow, how come this like super, super aggressive opposition that we saw from these third-party candidates — how come they haven’t said anything since this scandal has broken?'” Maddow said.

“I don’t know, Jill! I can’t pronounce it in Russian!” Maddow said sarcastically. “Hope you’re really psyched about you Wisconsin vote totals!”
