Do you think he’s lying about having the tattoo already covered with different tattoos?
TBH I don’t really care that much for the same reason I didn’t care about 1970s Joe Biden fighting desegregation: people can change.
I mean I like this guy’s message and he has been in front of this controversy from the start so that’s a good sign.
I warn you that sometimes these candidates can 180 on you.
Tulsi Gabard was a left adjacent alternative to Sanders and Warren until she didn’t find a path to victory and went to the “I left the left” play book. That one stung quite a bit for me.
John Fetterman was a blue collar pro union candidate until he had a giant stroke and still beat Dr. Oz and after that race has been a conservative in every but his party affiliation.
Kirsten Gillibrand was a strong progressive senator from New York that took over Hilary Clinton’s position and eventually became a democratic mouth piece that Schumer and the rest of the party rot has been known for.
The point is that these people have vested interests that don’t align with working American’s and this guy seems to be genuine which is why CNN and main stream media has had a hate boner for this guy.
That doesn’t make him instantly the hero but usually if these outlets are hating someone they are a threat to the establishment.
Use critical thinking and listen to arguments that make sense with research and history.
Tulsi Gabbard was outed as a russian asset really early in her career. I can’t find some of the older articles but the allegations have been around for at least a decade now.
She was never Bernie Adjacent. Maybe Jill Stein adjacent. She’s the congresswoman version of a Tankie, pretend to be left to make the USA look bad, dive head first into authoritarianism at the first opportunity.
I would be interested in seeing some of those articles, I remember word going around about this and couldn’t find any proof other than Hilary Clinton saying she was compromised.
Regardless, the point is do your homework when listening to professional liars giving their stump speeches.
The vague details I remember are that she frequently met with and invited to events an actual russian agent.
That seems to track with the fact that Elena Branson donated to her in 2020 and Gabbard hired someone who worked with one of the Kremlin’s lawyers in retaliation to Magnitsky Act. Russian news outlets have been favoring her for a very very long time.
More than 8 years ago she claimed to have met directly with Assad of Syria before introducing H.R. 608.
I suspect she was already compromised during her tour with the military.
