How is this any different than calling people who opposed the Iraq War as Saddam apologists? Or were you a supporter of the War in Iraq?

She *is* an Assad apologist. She *is* an Assad enabler. Her record is right there in the open if anyone bothers to take a good look.

Regardless of whether you believe she is a Russian asset (wittingly/unwittingly) or she isn’t, Hillary should’ve kept her mouth shut. She isn’t in this game anymore, nor will she ever be a kingmaker/queenmaker.

Same for every politician? They should all just disappear after retirement and not have any political/social policy thoughts or ideas that they might wish to express? The hell with that Obama guy then. Hell, he just endorsed one of the candidates for PM in our upcoming election. How dare he have any thoughts about Canada.

Yes, if the accusations and the photographs were accurate.

Do you have any reason to doubt them? btw, there is now a 9th accusation.

I mean, she’s welcome to offer up an endorsement to whomever she wants—that’s her right and her privilege and I’m sure it probably means something. But dealing in conspiracy-level allegations against her junior should be beneath her.

Do you think Clinton is dealing in conspiracy or do you think someone in her position, experience, and connections might know something that we don’t?

When she called trump Putin’s puppet, was that a conspiracy or was she being accurate in her claim?

OK ok I'm convinced... Andrew Yang and Marianne Williamson are also Russian Assets... this scourge must can only be eliminated by those of us willing to dress up like this dapper patriot

and destroy these assets of Soviet Russia...


Marianne Williamson warns Hillary Clinton over ‘character assassination’ of Tulsi Gabbard

2020 Democratic presidential long-shot Marianne Williamson came to fellow contender Tulsi Gabbard's defense after the party's former nominee insinuated that she is a "Russian asset."

Andrew Yang, another Democrat vying for the 2020 nomination, also defended Gabbard, saying the major in the Hawaii Army National Guard deserves "much more respect."




This is just so much drama distracting from the issue of if we can convince the average voter that Trump should be impeached or voted out. Have fun everyone.

Not nearly a much as Jill Stein & the Russians' "Poor Bernie! So cheated!" song routine. You're still dancing to it.

And, if Tulsi was such an ardent Bernie fan, why is she running against him now?

Tossing under the bus based on the opini9n of a loved politician who will be defended without the overwhelming proof such a claim requires. I've groomed many people and it is another name for mentoring, a cooperative process.

This is a very Trumpian move, and i would only vote for her as a last choice, Hillary jumped the shark.

Please. That's one definition of the word. It's not like the victims of UK grooming gangs knew from the start that they'd end up be pimped out before it was over.

I'm pretty sure Jill Stein had one of those "My God! What have I done!?" moments when she learned that Trump had won, due in part to her own efforts. Paying for recounts was a futile gesture of atonement.

As Amused points out, we're seeing the same sort of efforts from malevolent actors on behalf of Tulsi, as well. They seem to be more intense. If she actually cares more about America than about her ambitions she'll back the eventual Dem nominee, heart & soul. It very, very likely won't be her. The alternative is Trump.

It won't be her, and I don't dave a damn about partisanship sensibilities. I will vote for the best candidate IMO and that person will be a Democrat, but only because that's the choice we have today, not because of fealty or obligation. It is the right thing and that's how I operate. So Tulsi is now an US version of hapless UK gangs? If that suits your worldview I suppose you have that right.

I mean what I say and stand by it and no I'm not voting for Trump this time either. Stein? Tulsi? Nope, not them either. The greatest concern I have is a potential third party attempt which might fragment the Dems enough and I wouldn't be too happy- no sir not at all.

I'm just saying Tulsi needs to be careful about what she's being led to believe & who's behind it.

Ron Paul thinks she's terrific, btw.


I realize you're trying to do the right thing. OTOH, the GOP & particularly Trump haven't cared about doing the right thing for the American people since the 70's. Trickle down Reaganomics have been destroying the middle class for nearly 40 years & they're sticking to it, by God. I mean, if 400 people averaging over $330M/yr pay the lowest total tax rate of all Americans, so what? If the share of national income going to the financial elite has grown explosively since 1980, so what? If three people have more combined wealth than the lowest 50% of the population, so what? If the GOP is a wholly owned subsidiary of Koch Enterprises, so what? Fucking Losers just need to STFU & take what the Job Creators give them.

I've been pretty consistent in my scorn for the Republicans and Trump in particular. Let's just say that if the earth opened and swallowed them whole I'd see is at cosmic justice coming home to roost. My pick at this time is Warren BTW.

It appears that Hillary sees Gabbard as an actual threat, which is interesting. I would have thought she wasn't going anywhere, but Hillary tossing a pile of crap at her seems to have moved her into the limelight.
There would be some cosmic justice in Gabbard winning the nomination now, and it would put Trump in a very bad spot. His normal attack tactics would look really bad when he goes after a woman that's also active duty military.

Her slogan could be "try to grab my pussy".

She will not come remotely close to winning the nomination. Again, the question here is if hostile foreign powers are trying to promote her as a possible third candidate. I doubt she will do it, but we should all be aware of the problem.

Remember conservatives acted like the idea of the Russians intervening to get Trump elected was some ridiculous and hysterical conspiracy theory by Democrats and...well... the Democrats were 100% right. Let’s not make the same mistake again.

Why don't you check your own bull shit bruh. I already said in this thread that it's a distinct possibility that Sen. Warren will be the Nominee and that I would gladly vote for her. Maybe you should un-head-ass yourself.

*e2a*

uh-on it looks like Mayor Pete isn't patriotic enough... you might want to look at him too.

As if the use of Bernie-Bro in the post I replied to wasn't meant as an insult... looking into the relatively short history of such Labels starting around 2008...

Hey, Obama boys: Back off already!
Young women are growing increasingly frustrated with the fanatical support of Barack and gleeful bashing of Hillary.

sounds oddly like a prequel to the Bernie-Bro label suggesting a certain fear of female leaders by Bernie supporters which is oddly out of place considering my words in post
#118 in this thread.
Actually considering the polling and recent debates I think it is not unlikely that I will vote for Sen. Warren in the General. and that would be fine with me...

Hillary Backers Dissing ‘Obama Boys’ and ‘Bernie Bros’ Hurts Feminism
Hillary Clinton’s politicization of feminism has gotten so out of hand that, in addition to Bill Clinton’s criticism of “Bernie Bros,” two of her most respected supporters—Madeline Albright and Gloria Steinem—have jumped aboard the bandwagon. During a Clinton campaign rally in New Hampshire, Ms. Albright said “there’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other,” and in an interview with Bill Maher, Ms. Steinem stated young women support Bernie Sanders because “the boys are with Bernie.”
Admittedly an Opinion piece but I believe evidence enough if it has become a topic of conversation that Bernie Bro is often used by some as an insult by those who don't have Sen. Sanders as a person they support.

Yes and it’s nothing new.


Remember, conservatives were totally wrong about Russia last election so maybe you should defer to the people who were right.
