Tulsi Gabbard is a real piece of work, huh?

He conspiratorial criticism of the Democratic Party was not only utter bullshit, but dangerous in today’s environment, imho.

The thought that she is in the race to keep things stirred up and have the others fighting among themselves keeps cruising through my brain. Sort of a Russian technique kind of thing.

She could be legit and I missed it, but I don't like her.

she can tilt the election away from us in key swing states. All she has to do is discourage turnout.

She also has a smug self righteous attitude during the debates as she trashes our party. It's so weird.

Negativity generates apathy. Apathy discourages voter turnout. Low voter turnout gives Republicans a chance to steal the elections.

She's about the most accurate example (other than Idiot trump) of the Greater Fool I can imagine in today's world.

What freaks me out even more is that as an accomplished and educated adult, she simply has absolutely no idea (I believe) that she's being played.

People think she's anti war. They think she 'speaks truth to power'.

They're usually people who don't pay much attention to politics so they don't see through her schtick. Tell them about her actions and they stop believing he words.
