If it got to tens or hundreds of thousands of signatures, maybe he'd listen. He doesn't wanna be the new Jill Stein, does he?

Tens or hundreds of thousand individual communications are a lot more work to delete.

As for him wanting to be the new Jill Stein, I think he's thinking more about being the new Ross Perot. Jill Stein was only a factor in three states, but she made an enormous difference in those three states, with the help of the Russians. Schultz thinks he might actually have a chance to win. Let's show him that he doesn't.

maybe schultz is a good way to seperate trump from the "i want a businessman" crowd. he is also a deficit hawk. maybe his candidacy divides regressives.

What could possibly go wrong if we put politically clueless billionaire who likes to quote himself in the White House?
