From her speech yesterday at CPAC, you would never have guessed Tulsi Gabbard ran as a Democratic candidate for president just three years ago. In fact, one could easily mistake her for a card carrying, gun toting, God loving MAGA acolyte.
Not at all uncomfortable in front of a sea of populist conservatives, the former House representative from Hawaii expressed her gratitude to the audience for making her feel “right at home.”
She spoke of her disdain for the Washington elite establishment with as much enthusiasm as any young buck Republican in the House. Her support of the second amendment rolled off her tongue as easily as

No. The Demon-Rat motto is anything goes (including lying, cheating, and even killing) to get and keep power!!!!!
I know there have been a lot of former Demon-Rats who "saw the light" -- including the great President Ronald Reagan!!!. But I don't trust someone who was just voting for the pure evil of the Demon-Rat Party just a few years ago!!!
Too many good, solid, lifetime Republicans out there to take a chance on another Demon-Rat vermin in RINO clothing!!!!!

I've been seeing articles about Tulsi for several years now. I like her. I also like Kari Lake, Vivek, Kristy Noem, and Ron Desantis. In my opinion, Trump has several good people to choose from.

Trump has many good choices.
She ain't one of them.

Nikki Haley, who I despise, would be a better choice.
One thing I will say for Tulsi. Other than Dianne Feinstein and former Calif. Rep. Jane Harman, she is the only Democrat woman politician in recent memory who isn't a shrieking harpy or a total dingbat, or both.
The Democrat ABW's are in a category all their own.

Tulsi Gabbard may be a lot of thing, but she is no friend to the 2nd Amendment.

#8 - Indeed. She's a career democrat from Hawaii, where their Supreme Court just ruled that the Second Amendment is "militia-centric" and "[does] not support a right to possess lethal weapons in public for possible self-defense." She may have a lesser purpose in a Trump administration but only somewhere well below the executive level.

People change. Reagan was a democrat. Tulsi is the only veteran in the lot. That used to mean something. I'd rather have her in the cabinet than VEEP.

Just my humble opinion. CPAC gave her a great welcome but it’s not because they were jumping up and down for her to be VP. The establishment GOP thinks we MAGA are a bunch of Christian hicks who don’t realize she is pro-choice and anti-gun. She is not a REPUBLICAN. These articles are just bait to get things riled up.

No to Tulsi. In fact, no to any of the women auditioning for vice president.

Not as VP, no....but I can see several places in a new Trump administration where she'd be handy to have around, where she could be an asset during the campaign, when she'd be helpful to lead the "Response" to certain incoming attacks(that we all KNOW will happen)
Though I am waaaaay further right, I know of several people that worked on her campaigns, watched how the long knives came out for her, people literally driving her OUT of Hawaii for DARING to not "Kiss the Rings", they were not/are not wackjobs, and sane people can be reasoned with, if your "Reasons" are good? They will come along, climb aboard, stroke their oar...because they feel (at least for now) we are all going the same way.
Trump needs a "Big Tent" win...because he will need a wiiiiide base to make this second term effective. There is room for a meet and greet, friendly little chat with ANYONE who has been Ignored, let down, lied to, lied about, cast out, stabbed in the back, by the current "Powers that be", and they are LEGION.

I'm no on any gals at this time or ever. Girl power sucks! We need men running things in this volatile world. Being president or VP should not be a vanity position or a popularity contest.

It is enough for me that once upon a time Tulsi made Hillary Clinton nervous.

The only thing I need to know about Tulsi is that she endorsed Bernie Sanders. And I’m sure that PDT knows that too.

Stop this speculative nonsense concerning Trump's VP choice. When it happens, it happens, talk about it at that time.
