Clinton damaged her chances in the last elections causing a lot of Hillary supporters not to back Gabbard. Tulsi had dared pull on the wig of Hillary by accusing her of mischief. Clinton accused Tulsi of being in league with Trump and Russia at a critical moment in the campaigns.
Tulsi has been waiting for revenge and now she can pile on!
Tulsi is one of the best the Dem’s have and while very liberal she is not anti military and not anti American and will compromise. We haven’t seen the last of her. Some have hoped she would come over to “our” side but she would be a Liz Cheney or a Murkowski at best.
From a Vox article in part from October 2019...
“Hillary Clinton emerged from relative political obscurity last week to claim that Tulsi Gabbard, a Democratic presidential candidate and member of Congress from Hawaii, was “the favorite of the Russians” prepping for a third-party spoiler run during a podcast interview. She went so far as to imply that the representative was “a Russian asset.”
Gabbard fired back by calling Clinton “the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party.” In Gabbard’s telling, her party’s 2016 nominee was behind “a concerted campaign to destroy my reputation ... through your proxies and powerful allies in the corporate media and war machine.”
“It’s now clear that this primary is between you and me,” Gabbard, who is at 1.2 percent in the RealClearPolitics primary polling average, concluded. “Don’t cowardly hide behind your proxies. Join the race directly.”
This is a bizarrely intense fight given that these two are members of the same party. Clinton suggesting Gabbard is the Kremlin’s chosen agent for destroying the Democrats in 2020? Gabbard accusing Clinton of being the puppet master behind a massive conspiracy against her? Are these people serious?”
This what caused Gabbard to fall from grace. Tulsi is the real embodiment of everything feminist women claim they want women to be but when they actually see it, the Dem feminists reject it.
I wish her all the best. Like I said, she better start checking under her car every morning before she leaves for work.
