| I dunno. A lot of the candidate hate seems manufactured to me. It's just weird - I mean who is so invested in being anti-Bernie or pro-Bernie or anti-Tulsi? |
You know, I have no idea if Gabbard is a "Russian asset" (seems far-fetched to me) and I don't claim any special knowledge of the correct position on Syria. But your point is well taken. The vast majority of Democrats are foreign policy amateurs, at best. They have no clue that their party (and the US) has a lonnnnng history of supporting dicators and undermining democracy abroad. It's sad. |
The country should have stopped supporting Saudi Arabia after 9/11. But the Trump worship of MBS is sickening. |
Decades of Presidents have been more subservient to KSA and Israel than any U.S. politician has ever been to Russia. If you hate foreign meddling, you should speak out against what’s done for Israel and Saudi. |
+1 Sorry to say that Mayor Pete was a joke last debate. "We never betray our allies..." hahahahahahahaha |

Yes. And FFS, they need to find a new scapegoat already. Russia Russia Russia is getting so tired already. Honestly, people! If the Russians really could wield THAT kind of power, they'd be running the world already anyway. Good grief. |
Couldn’t agree more. |
Let’s add Iran to the list and the CIA coup that put the last Shah’s rather in power with help from — the Kurds. |
Our country was founded on the betrayal of our Native American Allies. Stop studying Sanskrit, Pete, and learn some history. |
Maybe Russia should stop its global campaign of interference in democracies, to break up the EU and NATO, to promote white nationalism and homophobia. |
One country SUPPORTING another country is not one country illegally and dishonestly interfering in another country's democratic election. But yeah, the defenders of Tulsi all seem to be either Trumpist Republicans eager to defend Russia, or far lefties (also supported by Russia, BTW) eager to attack Israel. Not the best way to persuade everyone she is NOT favored by Russia. |
Trump who she keeps defending is a big fan of al Sisi and the Saudis. Her Russian friends like Al Sisi, because he pushed the Muslim Brotherhood out of power. https://www.rferl.org/a/putin-egytian-leader-el-sissi-discuss-increasing-arms-sales-direct-air-links-moscow-visit-sochi/29547819.html |
Um, psst, Russia acknowledges that they are doing this. It isn't a scapegoat. |
Agreed. But gaslighting PPs gonna gaslight. |
