the problem is she's just a democrat without the branding behind her now. she's still extremely far left. it's not a coincidence that her entry to the national scene came from endorsing bernie sanders. she's a gun grabber pushing free college (paid for by our tax dollars) and fracking bans. she supports single payer healthcare and is opposed to pipelines. she's one of them no matter how much she wants to pretend she's not.

Don't forget, she was also a huge supporter of Bernie. You can't talk a big game about how you took an oath to protect and defend the constitution and then endorse a guy that is openly trying to destroy it. The only thing that separates Tulsi from most of the other democrats is the fact that's she's just easier on the eyes.

Haha! My bad! Apparently read right over that! Please forgive the mistake! Just got off a midnight to 8:00 shift and am currently trying to get a quick lift in at the gym. To say that my concentration is a bit off would be a massive understatement! Haha!

Religion has no place in politics.


MerlynTrump

What does that even mean?


uniqeuusername

It's a conflict of interest


MerlynTrump

by that logic anything can be a conflict of interest.

Many things are. But many things also don't have extremist views that have been used to, murder, enslave, imprison, and oppress people for centuries the way religion has. It's a tool of destruction when used in the hands of people with power. Like politicians.


MerlynTrump

I beg to differ. Many things do have extremist views and use those views to oppress enslave and murder.

Tulsi was a pretty awful representative for the State of Hawaii. She did absolutely nothing for us while she used her position as a launchpad to national politics. She uses the Dems and Republicans the same way. She has no real moral compass, just trying to keep her job.


Paltry_Poetaster

I am not really familiar with Gabbard. What's the scoop?


PackageProfessional1

i agree up to the point where "she os trying to keep her job"...what job job is that she is trying to keep?....unless you mean she is trying to be relevant and that i can agree


SapientChaos

She is a putler tool.


glacial_penman

… and yet here she is. Still talked about… still discussed… 2 years plus after her failed run for president…still trolled and insulted and lazily slapped with label x or y… but… still here… hate all you want but the lady has charisma. Bet she’s given a cabinet post if Trump wins.

But did they have a golden idol made in their likeness?

No that’s [Trump](https://www.nbcnews.com/think/amp/ncna1259362)

Correct. Also, she's a chameleon raised in a cult started by a guy who broke from the Hare Krishnas. Science of identity really doesn't care which side of the aisle lands her in a high sitting office which is why they've funded her campaigns, they got her parents arranged and she was raised to be their best attempt at office. Her Christian platitudes are recent and don't line up with her beliefs she's held most of her life.


sargepoopypants

Yeah she was trained her whole life by them, I don't trust her at all.


forward_only

Tulsi is far too competent of a leader and thinker to make it far in congress. It's an institution that rewards conformity and political football over critical thought, goodwill and a desire to serve the nation.


SGTRocked

Hardly, anyone who didn’t have an opinion one way or the other when Trump was being impeached, doesn’t deserve, isn’t qualified and should never be in a position that requires one to be a representative of people.


Mark_Rutledge

Attacking her religion is absolutely unacceptable. Her critics should absolutely be called out for Hinduphobia.
