If it takes a Leftist to keep us clear of starting WW3 as the Neocons are in the process of doing, then so be it.

I definitely don’t want her a heartbeat away from the Presidency.

Tulsi is my pick for Army Secretary. Others have suggested DVA and that also works for me.

RE: What about you? Is Tulsi your choice?

I’m partial to Byron Donalds or Ben Carson.

I don’t know. I’m kind of thinking Trump might want to pick someone who’s actually him for the past 8 years rather than an ambitious opportunist, who only recently “discovered” that her policies align with Trump’s. But I get it. Trump needs her because apparently she’s wildly popular with some imaginary demographic that Trump needs to win, so he has no choice.

I don’t want a cow worshipper. I already held my nose and voted for a Mormon once.

Isn’t that why we’re voting for Trump? to prevent WWIII (among other things)? Are you suggesting that can only be achieved if Tulsi is his VP?

Removing the regime will have to be a bipartisan project.

Trump won’t be elected running with another Republican. He should run with Tulsi or RFK jr.

It does not matter what he says he is going to do. If the regime remains in place he will do nothing.

Both Gabbard and Kennedy have excellent perspectives on the regime and on foreign wars (which really are the same issue), and in 2024, that’s the only issue that matters.

"I don’t want a cow worshipper. I already held my nose and voted for a Mormon once."

Me too, and I voted for Sarah Palin, not the backstabber she ran with. I will never hold my nose again and vote for a GOP candidate I know is a POS. I don't care if Jesus was his running mate. I wouldn't do it, and won't be a part of that ever again.

President Trump’s staff can do the focus group analysis to figure out what is fact and what is fiction.

I am confident they will make the wise choice based on all the data—which we probably will not see.

The idea is for Trump to win back the WH. She would help him get independent voters and women voters.

Don’t know - he tried last time to stop the Neocons and they were able to use HIS OWN PEOPLE against him, and I suspect some of the problem that he had was that he just didn’t know his way around. Tulsi knows her way around and NO ONE will be able to pull any crap on her.

Most of the support I hear for Tulsi presumes she has some sort of star power that can bring Trump a significant number of voters he couldn’t otherwise get. IMO, that’s just a fantasy. Tulsi performed poorly during her ill-fated 2020 campaign. Who is she supposed to bring to the ticket? Trump is polling as well as he is because of who HE is. Diluting his message by pandering for votes rather than choosing someone who genuinely supports his policies does him more harm than good.

>>”Tulsi knows her way around and NO ONE will be able to pull any crap on her.”

With all due respect, where do you come up with that? Tulsi knows her way around? In what respect? She’s been in the House for 10 years. What’s so unique about that? She’s never worked in the executive branch or demonstrated any unique skills that would set her apart to be second in command. What makes you think she’ll hold the line on anything when her “beliefs” change with the wind?
