Is Tulsi Gabbards explanation for why she voted against the "covid" relief bill... the best answer of all?

... and an answer that liberals simply cannot and will not even acknowledge?

quote - "it is a slap in the face to the American people... people who have not worked in months, struggle or cannot pay their rent... to think that it is ok to give $billions of dollars to corporate special interests, foreign governments... and $600 to these Americans is a slap in the face to them."

What say you?


Tulsi is the reason Harris drop out of her Presidential campaign
Tulsi would have been a better running mate than Harris and someone what to explain how Harris got on the ticket in the 1st place?


Harris is "black" and female. Those were the only qualifications needed.


And a smart prosecutor. Interesting that you left that part out and centred only on the personal.


Her prosecutorial record was horrible.


Didn't live in California so I don't know. But I have seen her work on Congressional committees.
More than that I'm noting how a poster's tunnel vision sees only the personal and none of the professional, which I have to presume is because it's a woman.

Tulsi is dumber than a sack of hammers. Harris is the sharpest knife in the drawer. She made Brett Kavenaugh cry.

I believe it was Tulsi that showed Harris the door on her Presidential campaign


I believe it's Tulsi who is soon to be out of office and Harris is the new VP.

She lost her party for good and other than wingnuts jerking off to her she's not going far as an independent or Republican.

Tulsi did not sell her soul the Democratic party. Explain how the least popular candidate and the first to drop out of te race managed to get on the ballot in the 1st place.. She must have fucked a lot of people to manage that


Harris wasn't the least popular candidate or the first to drop out and the Biden/Harris ticket beat Orange/Never ran for president team.

Tulsi is a coward. She voted 'present' during the impeachment. I mean, pick a side already.


Thats part of the problem. Everyone "picks a side" as opposed to supporting some kinds of principles.


I don't mean pick a side Republican or Democrat I mean pick a side should the President be impeached or not. Very important decision and Gabbard punted because she doesn't want to offend either the people who elected her or the wingnuts that fantasize about her.


The "Impeachment" thing was a major waste of time as there was zero chances of it succeeding and the whole Russia thing was as much B.S. as is the China stuff now.


Then she should have voted "No" and stand behind it.


I wouldn't have voted at all. I would want to be no part of it.
 
Yes you know what I mean. Yours is a cowardly response. It also does not matter if it's two bills. The end result was the same.
I don’t. The COVID relief bill was incorporated into an existing appropriations bill. It had no foreign money.

Your statement was about the corporate money.
I don’t really know. There’s money for small business, mass transit. I think more for healthcare corporations but that’s not a big portion and makes sense to incorporate to COVID relief.

It was no different this time either.

Are you changing topics? I am aware of the last bill’s problems. I thought we were talking about this bill.

Tulsi has been a much needed and refreshing voice of honety and common sense - which is why the Dems hate her and have driven her out of Congress.

She hasn't been "driven out of Congress". She's a sitting Rep now and retiring. For now. And when she ran she got elected easily.

As for "the Dems hate her" that's of course a sweeping generalization based on nothing but wishful thinking and as such, dismissed out of hand.


B'loney. They hate her as DailyKos (hardly a right wing mouthpiece) noted in 2019:

In a bizarrely timed announcement, Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard told CNN late on Friday that she was running for president in 2020, a move that was met with widespread derision.

Among other things, progressives quickly noted that Gabbard has cozied up to Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad on a secret trip to Syria two years ago; has cultivated violent Hindu nationalists in India; spent years as a virulent anti-gay activist, even when she served in the Hawaii legislature; was one of the first (and only) Democrats to meet with Donald Trump after he won in 2016; refused to sign a letter from 169 House Democrats denouncing Trump for appointing white nationalist Steve Bannon to a White House job; carried water for Republican megadonor and casino magnate Sheldon Adelson by introducing a bill to outlaw online gambling; has refused to sign on to an assault weapons ban; attacked Barack Obama for refusing to use the phrase "radical Islamic terrorism"; is beloved by conservatives; is beloved by top American Nazi Richard Spencer; is beloved by former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke; voted to make it all but impossible for Syrian refugees to settle in the U.S.; and told a reporter in 2016 that her "personal views" opposing abortion rights "haven't changed." Oh, and she once skipped a hearing on the VA crisis to shoot a surfing video with Yahoo News.




And the Hawaii Dems decided to toss her out by supporting another candidate back in 2019.

A trio of former Hawaii governors have backed Kahele’s bid to unseat Gabbard, and she ignited a feud with Sen. Mazie Hirono after authoring an op-ed in January accusing Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee of “religious bigotry” in their questioning of a nominee for a district judgeship.


A writer in the Daily Kos does not transmogrify magically into the collective body of "Dems" dear.

And again --- Gabbard WON her election, didn't she.

Dichotomists here place WAY WAY too much emphasis on political parties as if they're supposed to be some kind of personal definition. THEY AIN'T. Gabbard lives in a heavily Democratic state. That's the horse you ride to elections. If she lived in Idaho she'd be the same person running as a Republican because see above.

Hitting the sauce a tad early today? Tulsi won her reelection in 2018. 2019 occurred after 2018, bub. That is when the Dem party in Hawaii turned on her. And blah blah blah so sleepy....zzzz on you dissing DailyKos, a blog that is worshipped by a great many Proggies.

Yeah yeah whatever, AGAIN the point was the poster sees only the personal and ignores the professional. The post was far more about Admiral Rockwell Tory than it was about Harris.

There are no "Proggies" on this planet but the collective fallacy point stands. Your original claim was the collective body of "Dems" and your support to prop that up was...... a writer in the Daily Kos.

And in part two you've demoted that collective body of "Dems" into "the state party in Hawaìi". All hands on deck to move those goalposts.

It's not just the covid relief bill, it's the federal budget to September of next year. Gabbard just voted to shut down the government.

The woman is dumber than a sack of hammers.


Wrong.
As an omnibus bill, it is combining many things together, but is not the federal budget, and its failure to pass would not shut down government.
