In reply to the discussion: Tulsi Gabbard, Trump Tower Meeting, RW contacts, and Russia [View all]dawg day
(7,947 posts)5. You know, Trump talked a good game about being anti-war and all that too.
Point is-- I don't BELIEVE either of them. Doing what Putin wants might correspond momentarily with "anti-war," but you'll have to forgive me if I conclude that Putin's puppets aren't really reliable when they talk about "peace". Trump did too, remember, and is now carrying out the foreign policy that Putin wants. Trump didn't run as a dangerous traitor, after all... he snuck in as something else. You know, the snake in the grass.
Who knows about Gabbard-- but frankly, with so many good candidates who have no connection to Putin, what's so special about her? And don't go with "what she says." We know from Trump that candidates can SAY just the opposite of what they intend to do. What does she do that you think is impressive?
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
