    As a general rule when CIA officials say something is “a danger to the nation and the world” I fully support that thing so I guess go for it Tulsi

    On multiple occasions, she accused Trump of being “Saudi Arabia’s bitch,” taking orders from his Saudi “masters,” and of supporting Al Qaeda

    Lmao

      yeah, like we don't, in fact, have to hand it to her, but also that's the most ringing endorsement of her i've ever heard

      “This war and suffering could have easily been avoided if Biden admin/NATO had simply acknowledged Russia's legitimate security concerns regarding Ukraine's becoming a member of NATO," she wrote on social media

      Honestly I think this alone makes her a better choice than literally anyone that could possibly be on Trump’s list.

      I genuinely think this is the best case scenario with Trump in charge, honestly it might even be less bad than any options Kamala might’ve come up with.

      Unsurprisingly her positions on Israel suck shit, but fuck, “two state solution” and saying Israel shouldn’t be shooting peaceful protestors during the great march of return is waaaaaaay better than most of Trump’s picks. Better than Mike “There is no West Bank, only Judea and Samaria, build the third temple, let’s get this apocalypse started” Huckabee. Obviously a pro-Palestine DNI was never on the table, so I’m just happy to not have someone whose ultimate dream is the Samson Option.

      the officials threatening to resign are the silver lining to a trump take over cloud.

    Tulsi is more a weathervane than planet-hillary, a worse hisssssss than warren-snake-green, and beside all the outrage from senior officials she will continue the foreign policy (as will Trump) just like last time without a single shred of irony.

    “When it comes to the war against terrorists, I’m a hawk,” she told a newspaper in Hawaii in 2016. “When it comes to counterproductive wars of regime change, I’m a dove.”
