RFK Jr. Floats Tulsi Gabbard As Potential Secretary Of State

"SNIP.........
Democratic 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) Jr. floated former Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbards name as his potential pick for Secretary of State in a Thursday interview with Reason Magazine.
Speaking with the libertarian magazines Nick Gillespie and Zach Weissmueller, Kennedy said that while he didnt want to reveal too much, Gabbard is a person whose diplomacy skills he admires. I dont really want to telegraph my choices like that [but] I love Tulsi Gabbard
she understands the importance of disentangling, of unraveling the empire and unravelling the war machine.
Gabbard and Kennedy have aligned ideologically in the past, apparently unafraid to break from their partys orthodoxy. Gabbard, who abandoned the Democratic Party in October 2022, calling them an elitist cabal of warmongers, is known for separating herself from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other Democratic lawmakers when she stepped down as Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) in 2016 to support Bernie Sanders candidacy.
The very first line on Kennedys campaign website is We will end the forever wars. The two have also both been lightning rods for attacks from the Democratic Party in the past. Both have been labeled Russian assets or Putin sycophants for their views on Russian election meddling and the war in Ukraine.

It seems there is at least one odd duck in every family.

(11,212 posts)literal stadium filled of skeletons in his closet, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out he was sent to destroy our party. I am sure he would sell Ukrainian families into slavery if he could. He is Putins stooge.
He kept a sex journal where he penned womens names and the sexual activity he did with them under a code. He called his liaisons, muggings. This happened in 2001, when his wife was pregnant. He was in his late 40s and not a young adult. The mugging made it seem that the women he had sex with were at fault. If the woman had intercourse with him,they got the code10.
He then took his wifes body, after her suicide, and buried it in a Hyannis area Cemetery even though his wifes family requested to bury the body in NY. At the time of her suicide, RFK Jr had started divorce proceedings. He then disinterred the corpse and moved the body to another empty part of the cemetery. He didnt tell his ex wifes family of the movement.
Then there is his drug addiction and insane bullshit about 5G and vaccines.Can anyone think this narcissist has a future in National politics?

(22,590 posts)That makes it sound like they wanted to call themselves Democrats, while not actually BEING Demucrats. At least Tulsi isn't pretending any more.
I think Bobby kind of has to least call himself a Democrat. That's an essential part of what the name Kennedy represents, and lord knows he doesn't have much else to offer.
