Also about the veterans part, she was in logistics was she not? Not saying she wasnt serving her country but a Dan Crenshaw she is not.
Also also McCain was a veteran, didnt get to much love from the Tulsi crowd though.
Apparently Dan Crenshaw supports open borders as much as any Democrat.
don't understand the 'country would be worth more than that to me'
in the shooter's eyes he's probably a patriot, motivated explicitly for his love of his state.
ah. gabbard's attractiveness.
sure.
I was making the point that if any politician is more legit because they served their country it would be someone like Crenshaw. I dont know all his policies.
i mean, it's the preseason. none of this really matters that much.
Apart from her non-interventionism w.r.t. Syria, I think Tulsi 2020 is basically just another meme.
attractive anti-war veteran gets more attention than she deserves it's not a big deal. she's also legitimately different from a lot of the other dems, so stands out in that respect.
She did legit destroy Kamala Harris.
Her attention for that is understandable.
The weird appreciation for her on the right started before that though. Thats what I dont get.
How does she stand out from other Dems other than her foreign policy? 2A, illegal aliens, medicare for all, wahmenses rights and the economy.. she seems like just another Dem on all those things.
“We need to invest in 100% renewable and safe energy sources like wind, solar, and geothermal." - Tulsi
and she supports a ban on fracking
It is fixation with her foreign policy.
She is the most reasonable Democrat candidate
still wouldn't vote for her
Tulsi and Bernie are at best props for debate ratings because neither of them has a support base within the DNC apparatus.
I keep seeing conflicting reports is the manifesto real or not?
Don't know, gut says no. But that's a guess
Did you read it?
Parts of it, was on Drudge last night
Archive version:
as the socialist utopia comes closer, my plans for fleeing this burning country become more concrete
It's not just foreign policy. Tulsi is also willing to have actual conversations without frothing at the mouth over absolutely everything. That said, most of her "support" outside of the tiny dem following she has are non voters and more like "respectful opponents"
She is the most reasonable, I agree. But for this reason she will not be the Dem nominee
That's why I'd say she needs some degree of support - y'all need to bring civil discourse back into politics
In 2016 Bernie had overwhelming support (till he became a corporate shill), he didn't get the nomination. Reports from the time said he actually won the primaries but in a closed door meeting Hillary was anointed the chosen one. Peoples support does not matter to the Dems, it's the illusion of choice. The DNC lawsuit, they argued that they could pick the nominee from a smoke filled room and just ignore votes. It's in court documents somewhere.
I'm not talking about winning the nomination. I'm talking about culture
Also people's support will matter when they lack funding
I agree, the system is so corrupted now. They say one thing, inflame the messes and insight disharmony. I don't know what can be done, Trump is our biggest hope at the moment (In m opinion)
The attraction for tulsi started when she stood against the dnc in 2016 for screwing over bernie
I think Trump is too knee jerk, and supports a lot of the same dumb shit, but he was a good "fuck you" to the establishment
Sticking it to the DNC in 2016 is exactly why Tulsi will go nowhere in 2019.
The DNC's current trajectory is why they'll lose in 2020
