Clinton
also said she thought Jill Stein, the Green Party’s 2016
presidential nominee, was a Russian asset: “Yeah, she’s a Russian
asset – I mean, totally. They know they can’t win without a
third-party candidate. So I don’t know who it’s going to be, but
I will guarantee you they will have a vigorous third-party challenge
in the key states that they most needed.”
In
2016, Stein won more votes than Trump’s margin of victory in
Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, three states that would have
secured the presidency for Clinton had she won them.
Gabbard
later responded
“Great!
Thank you @HillaryClinton.
You, the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and
personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for
so long, have finally come out from behind the curtain. From the day
I announced my candidacy, there has been a concerted campaign to
destroy my reputation. We wondered who was behind it and why. Now we
know — it was always you, through your proxies and powerful allies
in the corporate media and war machine, afraid of the threat I pose.
It’s now clear that this primary is between you and me. Don’t
cowardly hide behind your proxies. Join the race directly.”
The
World Socialist Party of the United States, of course, does not
support or endorse either Gabbard or Stein but we can agree on Tulsi
Gabbard's accurate assessment of Clinton.

Jill Stein has tweeted
"In light of the latest slanderous allegations from
@HillaryClinton, I challenge her to a debate. It's past time to give the American people the real debate they deserved in 2016, but were denied by the phony DNC/RNC-controlled Commission on Presidential Debates. It's a shame HRC is peddling conspiracy theories to justify her failure instead of reflecting on real reasons Dems lost in 2016."
