Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein pushes back at a WAshington Post editorial calling her campaign for president a "fairy tale," by pointing out that the Clinton and Trump campaigns are "nightmares."



"The American people are saying that politics as usual has been throwing them under the bus and, in fact, the two major party candidates have the highest ratings of disapproval and distrust of any candidate anywhere at any time throughout our history," she said.





CHRIS WALLACE, FOX NEWS SUNDAY: Now, The Washington Post is a pretty liberal newspaper...



After interviewing you, this is an editorial that they wrote. The headline, "Jill Stein's fairy-tale candidacy." And in it they said this. "Jill Stein’s policy ideas are poorly formed and wildly impractical."



Dr. Stein, that's not good.



STEIN: Well, I think they called me actually a fairy tale campaign, to which I would answer, in fact we are living with a couple of nightmare campaigns right now that the American people object to at absolutely unprecedented levels. The American people are saying that politics as usual has been throwing them under the bus and, in fact, the two major party candidates have the highest ratings of disapproval and distrust of any candidate anywhere at any time throughout our history.



So what I'm saying is what the American people are calling for. Seventy-six percent of Americans are saying, we need to open up the debates. There are actually four candidates on the ballot for just about every American and in America we not only have a right to vote, we have a right to know who we can vote for. Donald Trump actually has received more than $4 billion in free media and Hillary Clinton over $2 billion. I’ve received almost none and yet, still, I'm coming up 4 or 5 percent in the polls with zero media, which tells you there is word of mouth going on out there because a generation of young people is locked in to debt.



And referring to your question about how do we pay for it? Somehow we came up with the money, it turned out to be about $16 trillion, to bail out the crooks on Wall Street who crashed the economy. Isn't it time that we bail out an entire generation that's basically been locked in debt, doesn't have the jobs to earn their way out of that college debt. What is more important to us than liberating a generation who can lead the way forward -- Not only on our economy, but in all of the social issues that we have in front of us.
