Gabbard refuses to pin chemical weapons attack on Assad

I'm already tired of American political icons who are hacks for foreign governments.

The 2020 election will be a choice between a Putin agent and a Bashar Assad/Modi agent.

...or maybe it's possible that there might actually be relevant issues besides who the candidate endorsed in 2016. DailyKos was a pretty pro-Sanders site and they hate Tulsi as much as they hated Joe Lieberman in 2006.

Yes there will be such issues, and Tulsi will "be" on the right side of all of them, because she's the type of instinctive politician that does that sort of thing. Believe me, she is the frontrunner.

If you think that Spain sunk the Maine, North Vietnam started the Gulf of Tonkin incident, and that Iraq had WMD, you will be very mad at Gabbard here.

If you think the Ukrainians shot down MH-17, there are no Russian forces in eastern Ukraine, and Russia didn't hack the US election, you will agree with Gabbard here.

Sheeple being led to the slaughter.

I’m curious as to whether, if the institutional Democratic Party turns up the heat on Gabbard, and complicates her reelection efforts, does that make her more or less likely to run for prez in 2020 than she otherwise would have been inclined to do?

She'll probably use it to paint herself as a victim, just like she did when two random guys said they would stop donating to her campaign.

That poll shows that a majority approves of the strikes though, and ground forces is a completely different situation and for now just a pure hypothetical.

Also once again is anyone else able to distinguish between opposing intervention and being personally friendly to Assad?

Precisely. You oppose military intervention - fine, that's one thing. Gabbard's been slobbering all over Assad, it's like her top issue to defend the man. It's disgusting how she cares more about shilling for a war criminal than she's cared about any other issue in her entire career.
