Jill Stein: Trump shooting symptom of troubled US system 

MILWAUKEE, July 14: Like most Americans, Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein said she was shocked to learn of a would-be assassins attempt to kill Donald Trump at a campaign rally.
The three-time White House third-party hopeful and far-left activist was in Milwaukee holding a counter-convention of sorts Saturday in protest against the upcoming Republican National Convention when an aide pulled her aside to tell her what transpired at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
In addition to the revulsion she felt over such an attack on a fellow presidential candidate, Stein, a career physician, spoke in an interview with AFP about a broader structural crisis plaguing the nation.
"What happened to Trump today, I think is a symptom of a very troubled system right now -- I mean a troubled political system within a very troubled society," she said.    —AFP
