Tulsi Gabbard won't seek re-election to Congress next year in HI-02
- Thread starter RastaMentality

Would she have a legitimate chance at swaying enough moderates to vote 3rd party to fuck over the democratic candidate in key states?
My gut says no.

wont be swaying moderate votes. She'll be pulling the progressives dumb enough to follow accelerationism if Bernie doesn't win the primary.
So, seriously, what's her endgame? What does she ultimately want? She's got to be angling for something, and I don't think it's really the presidency.
Like I know Mayor Pete is really running to raise name recognition and run the DNC or become senator or some shit before running again—and if he lucks out and becomes president now, that of course is fine with him, too. But I don't even know what she wants.

My gut says there are a certain amount of edgy people that would vote for any third party that can speak nice no matter how batshit or simply shit they are.
Fail a third party run and become a fox news contributor ala Donna Brazile.
It isn't 'bye'. More like it's her embracing her new destiny to ruin 2020. She is gonna go 3rd party and become the new Russian bot signal boost machine.
Maybe.... though her being a Fox News fixture could mean that.
Positive read on this is that she had the numbers that she's pretty much toxic in a Dem primary at this point and that she was going to get wiped by Kahele, so she's trying to avoid the embarrassment. Negative is that she's laying the groundwork for some all-or-nothing, I-didn't-leave-the-Dems-the-Dems-left-me third-party run that would preclude a simultaneous congressional run.
her presidiental run shone a big light on her history and polices and finally had a challenger that was able to get attention. It was only a matter of time for a Republican in all but name running in a 30+ D seat
There was no way she thought this wasn't going to be the outcome when she announced.
The only people I see propping her up are Bernie purists. Pay attention to who has defended her in the past and who made her a name...
Nice. She won't do shit to sway votes, so at least her seat is gone.
She's not a Bloomberg, Steiner or Schultz, "economic anxious" independent voter won't turn to her for help.

Hillary didn't force her to do nothing.
Gabbard's been planning to do this for a while.
Bye as in she's out of the house and won't be an elected official
One of the most baffling and disappointing developments of the Trump era is that the GOP has gone along with his nationalist, isolationist geopolitical vision. It's so incoherent
Tulsi posted a video on her Twitter coming out against impeachment days after AG Barr's memo mischaracterizing the Mueller Report, before the full report was released.
Then Tulsi publicly came out against impeachment once again after the Ukraine story broke broke wide open.
She didn't come out in support of the impeachment inquiry until a majority of the House had done so, including every Dem from a blue district, and her primary opponent was attackher based on it.
Today on Hannity she started regurgitating all the right wing talking points against the impeachment inquiry... that should have been a sign that she was no longer worried about her Congressional district.
