And what if Trump thumps? A socialist as you President? She checks a lot of boxes boxes but there are several deal killers.
My only concern with Tulsi is her economic views and that’s it. I respect the argument not to make her VP in case Trump croaks or is assassinated, but other than that she’s the perfect VP who has all the strengths Trump doesn’t have. And if I’d agree with you there, I’d still want her to be the Secretary of Defense or Secretary of State if Rand Paul refuses it.

She would only be the 13,458th Democrat in recent times to say whatever she has to say in order to stay relevant and weasel back into the swamp after excommunicato.
Yes, but how many of those 13,458 Democrats have Hillary Clinton as a prime enemy? That’s Tulsi’s biggest endorsement as far as I’m concerned.

What does this have to do with anything? Are you insinuating anyone is going to go after her?

If Trump picks a woman as his VP to run on the GoP ticket, he should pick Hageman … so savage.
My #2 woman pick for Trump would have been Winsome Earl-Sears, but I’ve been informed she was born in Jamaica making her ineligible for the VP position. Ayaan Hirsi Ali would also have been high up for me, but she’s also foreign born.
EDIT: Ayaan would also be an incredible candidate for SoS.

I mean, she’s said she regrets voting for Biden, but can’t bring herself to vote for Trump being a fricking boar. I’ve got her out of being a Democrat, but if Trump chooses Tulsi, I’m confident I can get her to vote for the ticket then.
My wife won’t vote for Trump but she sure as hell won’t vote for Biden and I’m ok with that.
She’s a mostly conservative mostly stay at home mom who is wholly against abortion, transing kids/lgbt stuff, war, taxes who gets a little woke on race stuff but not over the top. She hates liberal white women who think they’re helping.
She also thinks Trump is an a-hole (she’s not wrong.)
She’s a smart educated woman and does a wonderful job of helping raise our family but she doesn’t keep up with policy or couldn’t tell you what the most recent SCOTUS rulings mean.
I’m fine with her voting, but I’d just as soon she didn’t and she actually doesn’t.

Yes, she did bravely call out the Arkancide machine right to her face. That was bold and worthy of a tip of the hat for sure. And I do understand your point of view and where you're coming from.
Not trying to be contrarian, though that is my natural disposition. There are certainly politicians out there that are by far worse than Gabbard has ever been.
My point is just that taking an opportunity to be a thorn in Hillary"s side, and being vehemently opposed to the MIC and the US' propensity towards international military Interventionism, isn't quite enough to make me trust her. I watched her wreck both Bill Maher and Chris Matthews on Maher's own show and it was glorious. I've seen her absolutely raze many of her former teammates and it's glorious. She's educated, articulate, quick witted and fearless. If she stays on that path, I might eventually start to trust her a little.
...but as for now, I still see her as the same woman who stood on stage with 20 other radical liberals in the 2020 primary debates and raised her hand over and over in agreement with the likes of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Pocahontas Warren, Bernie Sanders and Amy Klobuchar. Not enough time has passed for me to forgive that, and I certainly am not the "forgetting" type.

Well, let's see, she supported DACA, Medicare for All, Green energy (including early support of the Green New Deal), new gun control measures, free college for all, voted "present" on the trump impeachment but supported it going forward, was a member of the House LGBT Equality Caucus, co-sponsored a ton of LGBTQ legislation, 100% voting record with Planned Parenthood, voted with Nancy Pelosi 91% of the time, AOC 95% of the time, and too many other things to mention.
But yeah, let's take her at her word that she has "changed" and put her a heartbeat away from the Presidency, can't imagine how that would backfire.
(Funny how all of those changes happened after she left Congress.)

Save for her working and not being a mother (we’re going to start trying next year), my significant other to a T. She’s out of the Democrat plantation, but she hates Trump to an irrational degree even if she agrees with all of his policies. I think I can get her around, but at worst she’ll vote for RFK which I can live with.

I disagree. I'd argue the opposite
