#1 The Gabbard Left and the Trump Right share the conclusion that our elite sucks and that it has forfeited any moral authority to lead our country

= the conviction that our institutions in these fools' hands have become a complete Shitshow.

Insurrections are made of such convictions.
Don't need to agree on the post-revolutionary order to agree that the reigning uniparty is a shitshow and that we need to bring the curtain down, as fast as possible.

#2 She doesn't try and pretend what her principles are. i.e. she'll do what she says she'll do.

#3 We should not want the left to be honorable or trustworthy. What we should want is for the electorate to see them as the liars, poltroons and mountebanks they are.

#4 She's a soldier, she fought back against Hillary, she's attractive.

Given the rest of the Dems that's enough.

#6 she would generally make Barack Obama look like William F. Buckley

Not to mention the sudden wave of cults and hindu hippies that would sweep what is left of American identity and install $ billion micro fiefdoms around the country. Godmen and dhoti clad lunatics would rake in millions. And the 'erb brand of pacifism would reduce America to a bit player while chinks and globalists continued rolled on.

#7 "Chinks"? Seriously?

And no, America will be fine without intervening in every war around the planet. We can develop ourselves instead of spending ourselves broke in idiotic, neverending conflicts.

#8 Sorry. (Actually NOT sorry) Anti 2A is off my table. Full stop.

#10 I don't agree with her on most anything. But she stands up, is accountable for her beliefs, and believes in our constitution. She id probably one of what the democrat party should look like.

#11 and believes in our constitution

Only as it suits her, though.

#12 Laura Loomer on Tulsi Gabbard

Read the whole thing, as they say.

It'd be nice if people on the right were less susceptible to pretty (for a politician) faces and empty "badass" rhetoric, but I guess the Tulsi and Nimrata fans gotta squee.

Sad, really.

I thought the right were the serious, substantive ones.

Use Tulsi to screw with the left if you can, but don't let her fool you.

#13 Tulsi's funding is Hindu Nationalist based and she is a strong Green New Deal proponent

#14 A lovable leftist is right there along side a pettable poisonous snake and a cuddly scorpion.

#15 She's uneducated, and none too swift.
Have you ever met anyone who thinks cowardly is an adverb?
Why would she make a trip to meet Assad, for cryin out loud?
She keeps repeating "regime change war" because she hasn't given her worldview any thought.

#16 Stopping unnecessary wars is good. Going to war with the American public, not so good.
