Probably a LOT -- and that also almost certainly explains why she didn't have any support at all from the DNC (or at least none that I observed).

I really wish she were the VP instead of the idiot Kamala Harris.

Don't be fooled, she's just another power-hungry politician who says the things people want to HEAR at opportune times. And that's about it.

She's also a gun grabber.

I can agree with you on some of your positions, but you cancel out a vote coming from me, when you want to trample on my rights. And WEF? What is THAT all about....
I don't know about a power hungry politician? Myself, I haven't followed her that closely to make that determination. But she is indeed a gun grabber and a Democrat. Two major reasons why I would never vote for her even if she were to run as an independent.

She's the ONLY Liberal with any common sense.

I'd rather have a festering pile of______. Compared to what we have now. Oh that's right we already have that.

Tulsi is to the dems like Trump is to the republicans. Although she's not as 'forceful' in her delivery.

But what she isn't is an establishment democrat. Nor is she a progressive in the mold of warren or aoc.

We need more DC outsiders on both sides of the aisle. Term limits for both houses would assist in that becoming a reality.

She is a veteran herself though. Usually veterans are pretty pro 2A.

Americans need to understand that the reason things like this happen is because the people who create these situations are NEVER held accountable. It will happen again.
I like her. She was definitely against the military industrial complex. That's why she didn't stand a chance. War and military operations are always money-makers and profit those who are rarely touched by their effects.

She was the only Democrat I was willing to vote for but she's not far enough left and doesn't play the game so the DNC wanted her out.

She definitely doesn't toe the party line. That's what I liked about her.
