Related: About this forumTulsi Gabbard a "No" on impeachment
Too "diviseve" for the country. Time to drop out congresswoman Gabbard. We need solidarity.

(9,500 posts)What does she think this election is going to be like? If doing the right thing is too divisive, then it's best she get out of the primary as she clearly is not ready for a general election with Don the Con.

(3,148 posts)Not that I don't trust you. I just need to save it when her fans start poppin on to DU talking about her as if "She's the future of the party".

Hortensis
(58,785 posts)This is hardly the first time I've wondered about her behavior. Russia's of course is very understandable; social media warfare is reportedly very inexpensive, so I'd say their investment in her has probably been paying off nicely, especially since she's somehow made it to the next round of debates.
Frankly, I don't think she has a sparkling future in the Democratic Party and is realizing that herself. Wither Tulsi next?

rogue emissary
(3,148 posts)Wow, and she did it on Fox news so the host wouldn't ask any hard follow up questions.
At this point she should just admit she's pro Putin. I'm sure the "I'd rather be a Russian than a Democrat" Republicans would vote for her.

(58,785 posts)offered no choice. But right now "military training" is as good an explanation as anything else observers have come up with for others with incomprehensible behaviors in this strange era.

Just my interpretation. That's all.

Hortensis
(58,785 posts)Not exactly unheard of.
I think she's a loose cannon who can't be counted on by anyone period. Self preservation doesn't seem as dependable motive as for most either. She's one of those seriously flawed self saboteurs. I need a more recent example than Newt Gingrich, but he comes to mind because he's never finished the job and always pops up in moments of trouble, like flies to wounds.

We also seem to have a certain element of unknown origin perennially plopped among us, drawn to even the smallest cut. Ready with an acid tongue.
You are so right.

(11,108 posts)Somewhere along the way, she had been taught that there is a duty to disobey an unlawful order. I don't think you can blame her position on her Army training. Of course, the other options are worse.

FrankBooth
(1,606 posts)I meant Tulsi won't disobey orders from the superiors who are funding her campaign, and those people don't want Trump impeached. She's been given her marching orders, and she'll follow them. Apologies for the confusing post.

(11,108 posts)As an retired Army JAG, I'm probably overly sensitive about claims that Army folks are required to blindly follow orders.

(4,558 posts)Right now there's only 1 leader and 1 body of players in this particular battle.. Speaker Pelosi and the House. This is what they're there for. When they decide to go forward, then it'll be on the Senate. It won't be a thing for the Presidential candidates at all (well, except for the ones that are Senators hopefully)

(1,606 posts)I'm sure the crowd at the debate will just love it. Hope someone makes her talk about it so she can hear the chorus of boos.
On the bright side, it'll boost her profile with the Breitbart crowd and gets her that much closer to a cushy gig on Fox News.

(31,237 posts)I can't believe her constituents are gonna continue to support her after this. Of course, she won't debate her primary opponents in her district, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if she announced that she was switching parties.
