The Tulsi Gabbard Presidential campaign thread

They voted for an atheist.

A pro-choice atheist who married not one, but two, Communists. :smiley:

Russia’s propaganda apparat is touting Gabbard’s candidacy.

Any friend of Assad’s is a friend of Putin’s.

You said the Republicans had been more warlike until just the other day. Follow your own commentary.

It is always surreal when you encounter someone chanting propaganda slogans in modern times.

Let me know when someone like that shows up.

David Duke endorses Tulsi Gabbard?
Former KKK Leader David Duke Endorses Tulsi Gabbard 2020 Presidential Campaign, Says She'll Put American Interests Over Israel?

David Duke is a totally un-original crank who would be ranting on a street corner somewhere if he wasn’t lucky enough to have a platform on the internet. His opinions are not and have never been relevant to anything.

NM. Too trivial.

Gabbard/Shultz 2020!

My read is that her going on record saying that both sides were to blame for the Trump-McConnell shutdown was the last straw as far as Democrats were concerned.

This is just the break the Gabbard campaign has been looking for!

That NBC link is right above you. Disgusting media smear campaigns.

But I’m sure someone will be along to gaslight and say something on the level of “Define is”

I’ve never understood any of this…he seemed like just any other corporate speaker you meet at a mandatory company training session for sexual harassment or other H.R. Dep’t. shindig…yeah, better than average but nothing unusual…

Then again, I don’t get Trump’s “charisma” either – like talking to any white ethnic small businessman not even one generation removed from the blue-collar world…

I think folks like what they like first and then rationalize it by finding all these reasons after the fact – which also explains why, therefore, those of different opinions often find the justifications so threadbare.

I haven’t read this thread. I didn’t know until today who Tulsi Gabbard even is.

I saw her ‘town hall’ on CNN. I’m sort of aggravated by CNN lately- all politics, not much news, fairly partisan, repetitive. But I haven’t seen Gabbard there before, or anywhere else for that matter.

My initial impression is, “This is the answer to Hillary.” Perfectly rational and well spoken, but also seemingly sincere and even touching. I thought her behavior itself was a form of leadership. Not bad for a TV appearance and pretty impressive.

I will have to see if she starts to seem like a schtick after I get to know her better. But so far: wow.

Yeah, she’s certainly different from Clinton. For one thing, Clinton supports civil rights.

Yeah, she’s different from Hillary, all right. Tulsi likes dictators.

Well, I don’t know her. I saw her performance and did not think she would be such a person. I’d need cites, and anyway, what if she has evolved?

While you’re waiting for an answer, perhaps this would be a good time to go back and read the damn thread.
