Stop telling us to stop talking about Tulsi. Do you think Tulsi, Fox and RT will stop?

I've heard some suggest that Democrats should not talk about Tulsi Gabbard. But if we don't, Tulsi, Fox and RT will set the narrative about her.

Do talk about Tulsi Gabbard and call out her anti-Democratic rhetoric.

So she's "irrelevant"?

So were Nader and Stein. Until we got screwed.

The Greens are going to run a candidate. They just are- just like the Libertarians so get over it. Tulsi is very unlikely to run third party. Quit trying to get people wound up for nothing. I wish people would not have started a fight with an unqualified 1% candidate so none of this ugliness ever happened but it’s too late now.

This is definitely not going to dissuade anyone from running third party, quite the opposite imo.

And if anyone does, they'll gleefully use this as a way to drum up support.

Tulsi's campaign is out of money, she barely made the last debate and probably wouldn't have made the next one. She might do so now, though.

This is not a schoolyard brawl. This is the same 2016 shit happening again. Anyone that does not understand or believe what Clinton is saying has their collective heads stuck in the sand.
