I wonder how many voters know she’s been arrested before for trying to disrupt presidential debate. I was not aware of that.

Jill Stein... keeping it real.

She’s going to have an arrest record after this campaign. Escorted from Hofstra, vandalizing bulldozers in North Dakota.

Political theater.

Then he should have paid for it. Remember New Hampshire in 1980.
