Yea, but other candidates don’t lose many votes. Picking up a Bernie-type lefty is likely to lose more Conservative votes than the few females she’ll pick up!

Only stupid conservatives will abstain from voting for Trump in 2024 at head of ticket. Those stupid conservatives end up helping Biden by removing their vote from Trump column.

Above is a youtube of Tulsi speaking at the Nixon Library just now (5/29/24). I would need to look at her record, but she gave a great speech. She speaks at about the 33 minute mark and goes for an hour with some Q&A at the end.

While she didn’t mention Reagan, I had the same thought when she spoke about how the Democrat Party is not what they used to be, and is not even what they still say they are.

One of the lines was something to the effect of “The Democrats say they are for women and the most vulnerable among us. But if a school doesn’t allow boys to participate in girl’s sports - they will take away the funds for school lunches for the poor.”

She told the story of how as a freshman Democrat she was invited at the start of the session to read a portion of The Constitution into the Record. She went, and was surprised that it was mostly Republicans. When she went back to her office she asked around - did you guys not get the invitation?

“Oh Tulsi - you’re a freshman so you didn’t know. But that reading of the Constitution is just some Right-Wing stunt they do every year.”

She said that is who we are fighting against. Leaders that don’t believe in the Constitution. Leaders that don’t believe that their power is derived from the People. Leaders that don’t believe in free speech, or the rule of law.

Thank you for the ping, FRiend...I will absolutely watch it.

I am surprised you remembered my post-it was a big thing for me, personally, having to change my mind on Gabbard.

I keep in mind they are all politicians. I don’t idolize any of them, but I certainly do distinguish them in their own categories.

Nope.

Trump won’t pick another Deep State plant.

And I’m praying he can find someone who scares Deep State even more than he does...

Tom Cotton or Elise Stefanik are my bets.

However, I think Glenn Younkin, Gov. of purple state Virginia, is the most strategic choice.

Winning Virginia puts the race out of reach for slow Joe.

I believe she has had a transformation similar to what Ronald Reagan went through, and what David Horowitz went through (and HE was a RADICAL Leftist, the worst of the worst). I believe she is a liberal who has been mugged.

Hard not to agree after actually listening to her. Too many here don't listen and have knee jerk reactions. There are several others who may be chosen. Like her, good and decent choices.

Trump will decide, and if he goes this direction, it should work out fine.

Thanks for keeping the flame alive Lakeshark. Tim Scott is now back as Favourite and Tulsi’s odds have lengthened.

I think Tim Scott would be a very poor choice
