Didn’t know of Tulsi prior to this. Watched a YouTube clip.Disingenuous out of the gate. No emotional appeal.

Very, VERY disappointed in Mayor Pete in defending Gabbard and going after Clinton for trying--again--to point out Gabbard's leanings.

I wrote an email to Tulsi Gabbard about a year ago, after she visited Flint, that the City of Flint, between 1997 and mid-2018, dumped over a billion gallons of raw sewage into the Flint River (supported by official MDEQ printouts) and I never heard back from her. When I called her Honolulu office, they were miserable and unhelpful.

Why the heck did she come to Flint?

I gave $200 to Mayor Pete. Time to go, Pete. Democratic candidates in 2019 who go after Hillary and stand up for Gabbard need to get gone.

What exact views does Tulsi hold that allow her to claim she’s a Dem?

Also, if she wanted to really push the whole “I’m a vet so I know what I’m talking about when I say we shouldn’t be in the Middle East” thing, she might simply stop mincing words. Just say it. We don’t go to war for Democracy, even though we say we do. There’s no such thing as altruism. But instead she speaks of regime-change war. It’s a bit nit-picky as well as not an American soldier’s choice of words. The fuck.

Also, Hillary ain’t running. It’s a glaringly obvious breaking of character for her to suddenly go full-on Kremlin by responding so pointedly. Not very Presidential either. Almost like she doesn’t actually mean to win? And, she was transparent and disrespectful during the last debate. Tulsi, you were there to answer questions, not “gotcha” your opponents.

Clinton didn't name Tulsi as Putin's candidate but somehow Tulsi and McCain jump all over her for naming Tulsi. Hmmmm. I think she doth protest too much

Btw, Hillary was probably baiting. Tulsi just took it, confirming the thing. Her response was so exponentially reactive, even if she weren’t a Russian asset, she certainly appeared too unstable to be a President. But, her response was pretty much propaganda so I’d say Hillary’s theory is correct.

What's Gabbard at, 3-4% in the polls? When you've got single digits in the primaries you are not "a threat" to anybody.

Ain't nothing wrong with that. You can attack her politics, but she's a lovely full-size woman.

HILLARY: *Makes pretty accurate but unflattering comment about unnamed candidate.*

TULSI: YOU ARE THE DEVIL AND ARE CONTROLLING THE MEDIA THROUGH YOUR ILLEGAL SPY PROPAGANDA NETWORKS! CORRUPTION! CONSPIRACY!!!

"MODERATES": Oh, Hilary, please be quiet and control yourself. Stop spewing such unhinged vitriol, please, get out of the 2020 race, we beg you, you're FORCING us to vote for Trump again!

THE 95 DEMS ACTUALLY RUNNING: *raise their hands, looking confused* Um, you could vote for one of u--

"MODERATES": WE BEG YOU! Hilary, don't make me vote for Trump! *anguished sobs into the American flag, wiping noses with Bible pages*

Isn't gabbard one of those Dems who are only in the party because she's in a district no Republican could get elected?

She’s careful to specify “regime-change war” because she doesn’t actually oppose anything *but* intervention in Syria. Never met a drone strike she didn’t love, but still gets credit for being the “anti-war” candidate.
