True but I think she will realize her values are more a fit with republicans and if she wasn’t a career in politics she needs to switch parties.Tulsi is going to switch,. She’s attractive.. and somewhat smart.. she will be a republican soon.
There is nothing about Tulsi that makes her a republican. NOTHING. She doesn't fit the GOP mold because she supports a lot of the left leaning idea's. M4A, climate change, increased minimum wages.
But she doesn't fit the left either because she supports audit the fed, cutting spending to pay for M4A and she's anti war.
She's what the democrat party used to be. Not what it is now.
Personally, I like people who call out their own party when they do wrong.
She doesn't want a career in politics. She's not running to keep her seat in congress. She's been there, done that. And has seen she can't be effective as a congressman, because of the way Pelosi runs the house. Since it's ran by lobbyist.
If you haven't seen it, there's a 3 part video called "The Swamp" I highly advise you to watch. It's sort of a "straight from the horses mouth" type thing. Congressmen explaining the details on how lobbyist run the show.
Example: Congressmen have to pay for their seat in committee's. Being in a committee, or being the chairman is the only way to really be effective in the House. But, It's like over $100,000 for a seat. Lobbyist will pay the upfront costs. But then the politician has to raise the money to pay them back. And the whole time, if you don't vote the way they're told, you lose the seat.
But as far as Tulsi goes, other than cutting spending in some places to pay for something else, she's nothing like a conservative. And she doesn't lie enough to be a republican. (or democrat for that matter)
