Oh ********. She's got folks thinking she is anything but a populist BERNIE supporter. Gah.I didn't like a lot of her policy positions but man it was hard to find a democrat more honest and true to herself than Gabbard. You ask her a question and you'll get a real answer. You have to respect people like that who carries themselves well.
Again, Tulsi supports almost everything Bernie supports. She is a Bernie Democrat. Keep it up I guess, but TULSI IS A POPULIST LEFTIST DSA type. It is right there in her ********* profile; I will never understand why folks on here fall over themselves for her.
I bet if she were Sec Trans she wouldn’t be trying to get social justice BS included with an infrastructure bill.Again, Tulsi supports almost everything Bernie supports. She is a Bernie Democrat.

Yes, it appears she is, whether Green New Deal, universal Medi, $15 Medi, supporting Sanders candidacy, but has a lengthy history of support from and association with socialist people and groups.
It is what it is.
Dang you and Zep are killing me. I surrender.
I guess I like that she calls out democrats, big tech, etc. We know she calls out Republicans. It would be interesting to hear her take on the violence in the streets. I could see her condemning it. That alone would make her different.
Not trying to gang-up; I don't think Zep and I agree on much.
I'd like to see someone interview her about this background. If she doesn't believe in the racialized, violent Marxism in vogue, I want to hear how she compartmentalizes the inherent evil of socialism and reconciles that with what she espouses publicly.
I have a feeling that Tulsi's political philosophy comes more from her heritage as a Pacific Islander than from educational socialist indoctrination. She doesn't come off as a rabid socialist - more one with beliefs stemming from how she grew up in a different culture. The major difference is that she seems open to actually listening and to compromise rather than someone who graduated from a reeducation camp like Warren or Sanders. You can work with someone who is honest even though with a different political philosophy but not with a radical political hack unwilling to even listen.
But you’d vote for someone pretending to be conservative?
Trump for example.
I liked both post to help your like countSlice..at this point he was just a Dem from 30 years ago. To deny Trump was not conservative in other than fiscal policy is fallacy. We are witnessing it now and He had a 90% R approval.
Standards have been lowered, but speaking one's mind honestly is a true valuable attribute. I even admire Sanders for it the last few years, although 20 years ago he even denied being "socialist". If she supports Sanders, I will hard pass no matter how honest with horrible policy
They want to bang her. It's that simple.Again, Tulsi supports almost everything Bernie supports. She is a Bernie Democrat. Keep it up I guess, but TULSI IS A POPULIST LEFTIST DSA type.

Her parents are entirely American born, lived in various states, and moved to Hawaii from A. Samoa’s when Tulsi was two. But let’s say the culture in HI is that different but also point out just what socialism is.I have a feeling that Tulsi's political philosophy comes more from her heritage as a Pacific Islander than from educational socialist indoctrination.

Someone was going to be elected president; of the nominees Trump was the most conservative choice.
2016 was the last time I voted Libertarian and likely for the last time. It’s an indulgence the nation cannot afford.
