Here are some bonus tweets shared on Stein’s Twitter page during the debate:
I’m the only candidate in this race not corrupted by super PACs, billionaires or corporations. #debates
While Hillary and Donald might be occasionally saying the right things, it’s important to look at their terrible records. #debates
We don’t need the insurance friendly Affordable Care Act, we need to treat health as a human right with a Medicare For All system. #debates
If we want peace at home we need peace abroad. It’s despicable for Trump to bash Muslims and Hillary to bomb them overseas. #debates
There is a refugee crisis created in large part by US military interventions. We need to do our part by taking in refugees. #debate
There was very clear evidence that the DNC definitely tampered with elections behind closed doors to smear Bernie Sanders. #debate
Both Democrats and Republicans are funded by big corporate interests including Wall St. Banks, fossil fuel giants, & war profiteers. #debate
I don’t know which one is scarier, Hillary who wants to start an air war in Syria or Trump talking about more nuclear weapons. #debate
Let’s be clear: a no-fly zone means we’ll be shooting down Russian planes. Between us we have 2000 nukes on hair-trigger alert. #debate
The Clintons’ support for NAFTA destroyed millions of jobs, including in Mexico where many farmers became economic refugees. #debate
The science tells us that we have about 17 years to cut out fossil fuels completely to avoid catastrophic climate change. #debate
Tonight’s #debate showed why Americans are tearing their hair out over the establishment party candidates. #OccupyTheDebates
