        Annnnd, here we have 2020’s version of Jill Stein. He is figuring to appeal to “moderate” republiTHUGS who still hate to vote Dem, but loathe #TangerineTwitler. He needs to just stand TF DOWN!

    • escondista says:

      No way. Stand up, Justin, and split that Republican vote!

    • Diana says:

      Im so confused… voting libertarian hurt Hillary in 2016 but Ross Perot helped Bill Clinton win…. maybe this will be like a Ross Perot moment?

    • klutz says:

      you dont seem to understand how this works….

      Bernie people & co have VOWED to vote Trump rather than the democratic candidate. and obv its not ALL bernie fans, but these ppl have made it clear they wont vote for Biden.

      so YES WE DO WANT THIS GUY TO RUN. otherwise alllllll those votes will go to donald trump. this guy could take votes away from trump. it is nothing like weird jill stein. nothing.

      • Esmom says:

        He’s going to take votes from Biden. That’s the plan. He has no other reason to do this.

      • Anonymouse says:

        I don’t understand how this works? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha [inhale] ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

        Thanks for the laugh! If you only knew!

    News of Irrfan Khan’s death today hit me with the feels. I just adored his work.

    And the tea from Rob ain’t new. He wrote about this in his 1st biography. And for such a douche Lowe is, that was a very good book.

  3. Sara H says:

    Cinema lost a giant today.

    RIP Irfan Khan.

  4. Lightpurple says:

    Rest in Peace, Irrfan Khan.

  5. SaraR. says:

    So sad about Irrfan Khan. What a wonderful actor he was.

  6. Rapunzel says:

    Justin Amash… providing more evidence for the theory that all Justin’s suck. See Timberlake, Theroux, and Bieber.

    Trudeau was thankfully spared. But I think my thesis is pretty much proven.

    • Anners says:

      Meh, Trudeau is a bit of a twat. Your theory stands. 🙂

      • Golly Gee says:

        Justin Trudeau may be a bit dorky, but he is a caring, decent human being unlike like so many politicians. He has shown great leadership during this pandemic. Just look around you and be grateful.

    OH GOD

    I’m SO sad about Irrfan Kahn. I was praying he would survive that g-d cancer and his colon infection. His 95 yo mother passed away four days before he did. He had to attend her funeral by video. Heartbreaking.

    He had such an incredible stillness on screen, along with warm kind eyes, a sly smile and that melodious voice.

    I JUST saw him in the 2010 HBO show “In Treatment” as a patient. He was brilliant. My two favorite movies of his are “The Luncbox” & “The Namesake”. Even if I didn’t like one of his movies, I always loved him.

    His messages to his fans after his diagnosis were positive, empowering, kind and full of hope and love.

    RIP sweet Prince, you are sorely missed.

    Tea Party star Justin Amash of Michigan is made of DeVos (also from Michigan) and Koch money. Look up his funders over the last ten years. He’s a Trojan horse. His “independent” act has been for one reason only–to wait in the wings and step up to maintain power for the GOP when needed. The only good news I get out of this is that the Trump campaign is in so much trouble they’re pulling the trigger on the third-party spoiler. But it could work, because all they have to do is muddy the waters in critical states like Michigan.

    • Anna says:

      But of course And viola: this is how white supremacy is maintained It comes in many guises even “libertarian” who is actually funded as you mention by DeVos and Koch two of the most evil of the ultra-right-wingers This is how it maintains its power Watch out: this country will end up with four more years of the current hell People–and by people I mean white folks–simply do not learn or else secretly want to maintain white privilege so vote against even their own best interest and this is across “class” This is a repeat of 2016 Black women in particular vote like our lives depend on it which they do but we can’t save this country

  10. Sunnee says:

    I’m going out in a limb and saying this is good news for Dems. I know we like to blame Nader for the big loss in 2000, and it’s criticism he deserves. But that third part spoiler is Partially what won the 92 election for Clinton. Ross Perot siphoned votes from Bush allowing Bill to win. Repubs took note and used it to their advantage in 2000 and 2016. I have no doubt that those third party nominees such as Stein were paid. Smash will siphon votes from Trump. Few democrats will vote for him.

    • SM says:

      Too many variables ….the third candidate such as moderate republican can hurt the chances of Biden. More likely at least. Look at all Meghans McCains who are “not convinced” to vote democrat. There should be only one choice. Trump and not-Trump, so this guy needs to go away.

      • Traveler says:

        “Trump or not-Trump” is All that should matter right now. End of story.
        And I’m desperately hoping that most people will come to their senses and circle the wagons around NOT TRUMP, never, no way, no matter what.

  11. Miumiiiu says:

    Will he be the only man who hasn’t been accused of assault on the ticket?

  12. paddingtonjr says:

    Really sad about Irrfan Khan. His performance in The Namesake was beautiful and nuanced. I have gone to see many films on the strength of his name alone. RIP Irrfan.

    • ravynrobyn says:

      Me too-if he’s in a movie I know it’s worth my time and $.
      “Nuanced” is a perfect description of his acting.

      Sending love and warm healing light to Irrfan and comfort & peace to his loved ones.

  13. jferber says:

    Don’t do it! Don’t be the Jill Stein or Ralph Nader of this election! Damn it.

  14. Mee says:

    Someone please go get their boy and tell him to sit his punk ass down somewhere! Oh and ‘former Republican’ still votes Republican on every piece of legislation.

    I’m pretty bored and desperate for content, but by god I refuse to read what Tyra Banks eats in a day.
