smearing tulsi, endlessly — question to Billy T

I dont think so. She’s not Bernie. But Bernie is not Jill.
She’s not Obama. She’s a different animal than Obama.

She’s no leftist. But she’s also no Obama-CORPORATIST. She’s an odd one. Hard to label.

One thing Ive learned is she…changed. If you look at the old-Tulsi from years ago, you can see why Bannon might like her. But ‘something’ changed her. Maybe it was some kind of political algebra, but I dont think so. I think she really did evolve in some ways. Again, she didnt become a ‘leftist’ (see her views on Venezuela) but she did change on some big topics. Its there in her record and her statements if you dig into it.

I cut and pasted her RECENT stances on issues. Look at them. This is not Obama. (If it were Obama-Hillary the deep state would LOVE her)
