Attached is a link to Real Clear Politics, which has a video embedded showing the interview Tulsi gave to Morning Joe the other day. Listen to the questions, hear their anger, smugness and sheer disbelief that anyone could oppose war and regime change in Syria.

This woman has a brass set for saying what she did on MSNBC and it virtually ensures she will be ignored, censored or outright derided by the corporatist Dems. She was and will be treated in much the same way that Ron Paul was by the mainstream press in 2008 and 2012 because of her similar opposition to mainstream American foreign policy.

This got me thinking, Trump is no Ron Paul, but he is the most skeptical President when it comes to war that we've had in quite some time. I believe with every fiber of my being this is why he's so violently opposed by the Washington political establishment. This is why there's impeachment talk. This is why there's a Mueller probe and this is why there are endless investigations.

We've created a new Cold War that increases the likelihood of us becoming involved in proxies war around the globe, especially in the Middle East and Central Asia. Trump opposed the Iraq War and has expressed skepticism towards NATO, which is essentially an arm of American imperialism. He's also independently filthy rich and not dependent upon post-politics enrichment like many other Presidents have been, which is why they toe the line while in office.

I for one cannot wait for Tulsi to expose the Democratic Party for the warmongers they are. In a race that will likely make Joe McCarthy blush from all of the Russia fearmongering, it will be nice to hear a voice of sanity on foreign policy.

Tulsi Gabbard has a fairly interesting foreign policy stance. A breath of fresh air. Ron Paul like.

Of course, NBC and other shills already have stories out connecting tulsi to Russia

It’s pathetic

“Muh russia” will be a tool used by establishment toolbags in both parties long after trump leaves.

We all need to write her emails of support.

If a dem must win, I hope not, she would be decent.

Trump might be the most libertarian president we ever see. He has taken a sledge hammer to the regulatory state and is truly ant-war. After 8 years of the combo of deregulation and court system stacking the US will never be the same.

He may be the closest we ever see. I wish he would bang on the balanced budget drum though. Also hit hard on the foibles of career politicians.

She won’t stay in the race.

She needs to leave the Dim Party.

American imperialism


If America wanted to be imperialist, we would be. Nothing could stop us from total military domination of the world.

We are the only country in the history of the world that conquered it and then gave it back and paid to rebuild it. That's far from an imperialist society.

Did you listen to what she said or just look at her and cut off the sound? Listen to the first minute of her response.

She references the misleading warning in Hawaii. That was a human frickup, not a true NK threat. THEN, she states Trump’s withdrawal from the horrid Iran Nuc deal will cause NK to distrust him...that is fricking retarded,
.

Trump is telling Kim, “Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining”. And this dumb bitch can’t see that?

My focus of this thread was about her general opposition to regime change and nation building, which is why I referenced Syria in the link title. I don't agree with everything she said, but she has the same type of political honesty that you see in a Ron Paul or Juston Amash, unlike your soulless establishment politicians.

They actually asked her, “do you think Assad is a good person?”


This is what passes for journalism today smh

It's so odd to watch the left actually make a stand for an endless war as well as actively attempt to provoke a war with another super power

Just flipped on Fox Business and now Trish Regan is beating the war drum. Now they're saying that Hezbollah is migrating to Venezuela so now we need to get involved. Unreal

Her basis is off. She has no compass for correct factual analysis.

That is likely true.

Why do you disbelieve it?

I don't necessarily disbelieve it. I don't think we need to use it as a reason to get involved in their potential civil war.

Under no circumstances would I vote for her but she’s the closest thing to a democrat I would vote for in the last 20 years.
