No
Stein has said she sees “no lesser evil” between Harris and Trump, yet she’s also called out Harris and said she will do whatever it takes to make sure she loses. She’s said no such thing about Trump. Doesn’t take a political sociologist to see that as supporting his regime.
Cat’s out of the bag now, she’s truly just in it to spoil the vote.
It depends on how you define “hurts more”.
Looking at the polling for PA, but SPECIFICALLY polls done by the same agency, both with Stein and without Stein:

Oct. 7-10 857LV
The New York Times/Siena College
Harris - 49%
Trump - 45%
Stein - 1%
Oliver - 0%Oct. 7-10 857LV
The New York Times/Siena College
Harris - 50%
Trump - 47%In terms of raw numbers, yes, with Stein in the race Harris loses 1 point while Trump loses 2, so you’d THINK that means it hurts Trump more.
But there’s no logistical difference between 47% and 45%.
In elections where the winner is 50%+1, dropping from 50 to 49 is a HUGE difference.
In elections where the winner is 50%+1,
US popular vote elections aren’t 50%+1, though. Whoever has the most votes wins, regardless of percentage.
came here looking for mental gymnastics
this is the stuff!
