Tulsi Gabbard is leaving the Democratic Party

[Childlike Empress]

Great statement and she is one of the two people who I named as future POTUS - the other one is Edward Snowden who was just made a Russian citizen.

Curious to see what this will involve into. She didn't join the Republican party as it looks.

 

[Beelzebuddy]

That's nice. Out of curiosity, are there any other American political figures who are entirely not Russian assets that you inexplicably feel are destined for great things?

 

[kookbreaker]

‘about time. Doesn’t she whine about leaving every two seconds? Honestly you could have told me she left a year ago and I would have believed it.

Oh, and she’s upset about anti-white racism. Awww.

 

[I Am The Scum]

She's been losing attention since shilling for Russia's attempt at ethnic cleansing. "I have left the left" is an easy way to get yourself a few interviews in reactionary circles.

It likely won't last. I don't think she has the stomach for full-blown Trump/Q-anon apologetics. She'll just be a milquetoast right-winger with the thinnest of leftist credentials.

I think you meant "evolve." I'm reasonably certain it will evolve into total obscurity and, I can only hope, to her falling out of a high Moscow window, or some similar fate she deserves.

Disagree there. She'll try for Trump's VP candidate, and will go as full-on, QMAGA, "abortion is murder", save the white race as she can get away with. Her royal doucheness has been planning this game for years.

Seems like your forecasting w.r.t. US politics is as prescient as your forecasting w.r.t. the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Neither of those two individuals has, or had, a realistic chance of becoming President.

Defenestration is reserved for oligarchs. It's one of Russia's highest honors, awarded at the pinnacle of one's trajectory as an example for others.

Any guess as to when she finally makes her membership in the GOP official?

In the land of Trump? They both have legitimate chances.

**** that pro-fascist opportunistic piece of trash.

 

[JoeMorgue]

Yeah seeing as how I hadn't heard Tulsi Gabbard's name in the news in a while I'm not shocked at a big "LOOKIT ME! LOOKIT ME" thing from her.

This is just a 4 year old setting the curtains on fire because Mommy and Daddy are too busy with adult stuff to watch them sing "Baby Shark" again.

 

[The Great Zaganza]

Republicans love Tulsi ... as a Democrat.
I think she is throwing away free money and adoration by switching parties.

 

[Upchurch]

She lost me at “elitist cabal of warmongers”, it was her repeated use of “woke” that nailed the coffin shut.

Yeah, that seems to be right out of the republican playbook: Anything that acknowledges that minorities might be at a disadvantage either currently or in the past is "anti-white racism".

Some of the other claims she has made about the democrats:

"Warmongers"...

Umm... where exactly does this come from? Neither Biden nor Obama before him have initiated any wars, and when they have used military force, it has been in response to foreign events. The only recent conflict of note has been the war in Ukraine, where the US government has supported the Ukraine. But Putin initiated the conflict, and the only alternative is "let Russia have whatever it wants", not exactly a great response.

actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms

One party has acted to put judges on the bench who believe in forcing 10 year old rape victims to give birth, and its not the democrats. The Democrats are working to try to enhance voting rights and reproductive rights.

demonize the police

Well, given the fact that police killing of minorities is frightfully common, I do think some oversight of their actions are in order. (And when the claim comes out that it's just "some bad apples", the rest of the police force tends to close ranks around them.) And while there are some that are outright calling for "defunding the police", Biden is not among them.

I find it ironic that she would criticize both the "undermining of freedoms" and "demonizing the police", given the fact that the police are often those who do the oppressing of those freedoms for so many.

believe in open borders

Except of course they don't. "Open borders" is a false republican accusation/talking point. What democrats oppose is a useless border wall, instead preferring other enforcement methods.

weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents

So, any crimes committed by republicans should be ignored? That seems to be what she is suggesting.

I for one think that Tulsi Gabbard has a better grasp on things going on, and that the things you think are going on are plain BS.

 

[JoeMorgue]

Because since she's now a Republican ("But she has said she's a Republican, show me where she said that, I demand a CivIL dEBATe where you show me..." No, shut up.) she going to use all the same talking points, none of which actual make sense.

Evidence of her joining the Republican party?

Because you're talking about how great she is and only Republicans kiss Russia's ass enough for you to do that.
