Tulsi Gabbard is a right-wing tool
Her mysterious affection for Donald Trump’s favorite autocracy is getting less mysterious all the time: (Note: Fox News link)
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, said in a new interview airing Sunday that she opposes an impeachment inquiry into President Trump because it would “tear our country apart.”
Gabbard, a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, told Greta Van Susteren on her new show “Full Court Press” that it’s “important for us to think about what is in the best interest of the country and the American people, and continuing to pursue impeachment is something that I think will only further tear our country apart,” The Hill reported.Several other 2020 hopefuls, including Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Bernie Sanders, have said they support impeachment.
Gabbard said that voters should be the ones to get Trump out of office, not Congress.“Make no bones about it: We need to defeat Donald Trump,” she said. “But I think it’s important for our country’s sake and our future that the voters in this country are the ones who do that, and I believe that we will.”
I got this Fox News link via a right-wing propaganda distribution service, that curates what it considers important stories and then spams the email boxes of leading opinion makers like LGM.
It’s significant that there’s obviously a great deal of concern on the right that Trump could be impeached. That they definitely don’t want this to happen seems like meaningful data in regard to whether impeaching Trump would be politically beneficial to Democrats.
Any Democratic politician who tries to categorically take even an impeachment inquiry off the table is doing exactly what Republicans want her to do.
That too is significant.
