OML, I don't really want to derail the thread but there are few enough of us posting here that I'll ask. What is it that has you so enamored with Tulsi? I am genuinely curious.

As they should. Anyone who has watched a family member age and start down the hill like Biden has over the past couple of years knows that he its very likely he won't be alive in 2028.

I think she’s exceptionally loyal, brave, intelligent, a patriot, and is archenemies with the Deep State. She’s seen the light, and I trust her. Having Hillary Clinton as an arch enemy is a major endorsement in my book. I think Trump should keep her close.

I would not be surprised if Donald isn’t a bit medicated to keep him calm. Plus, not only is an ear injury tender and painful for a while, bet he has to have bruised ribs, back and legs, etc. from the SS piling on him. At 77, healing takes a bit longer and pain tends to stick with you longer. He most assuredly is distracted. (Not to mention the emotional toll.)

Unity is how you win. Haley has a voting bloc and she did a good compare and contrast. She made a clear contrast that while you may not think is perfect, he is better than the alternative option. She didn't go into deep issues and identify where she disagrees and played to agree side. They probably hate each other, but she did what she needed to do to assist Trump.

These things don't always work. There have been moments, i.e. Buchanan 1992, where the unity doesn't work and they go rogue. Haley stuck to script and delivered Trump some more votes.

How did Tom Cotton get a later speaking slot than Haley, Vivek, Cruz, or DeSantis? This is a let down from those speeches.

As they should. If Biden wins, she’ll eventually be President

Holy shite Cotton is putting me to sleep here.

Voted for him when I lived in Arkansas but this is unbelievably low energy.

That said, he'll be a long time ally in the senate

All fair points and I agree with them except maybe the loyalty one. I don't know enough on that front to have an opinion,. Thank you

I do think she has a place in a Trump administration but I want it to be focused and limited to her foreign policy strengths.

Keep her away from the economy, I agree with you there, but Tulsi is brilliant in foreign policy. She’d make a fine Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense for Trump.

Tom Cotton is the exact type of person who will be in the Senate until he's 90.

Ted Cruz is a better voice for the message Cotton is delivering. Trump is a better politician than me so I'll trust his judgement on their placement but I don't get it.
