What you are describing is not a change of heart, it's revenge for being blackballed by Pelosi.  Helluva thing to base trust on.

Well, she hasn't been proclaiming conservative ideals on other social issues other than guns, boarder, and oppressive government?  What about the transmafia and grooming in schools?  Has she touched on abortion and welfare?   Has she been campaigning against taxes and crazy spending?

She has moved right on a few issues.  I would consider her approaching a classic liberal, but she is still on the left.

That said, there is no room for her in today's DNC.

She is not a serving politician, so she can do no harm.

She is saying the right things, but words are wind.

She SOUNDS better than many elected Republicans I could name, that's for sure.

Converts *DO* believe pretty strongly, however.

We shall see, I reckon.

That is the $64 question....  Has she publicly disavowed or otherwise rejected her prior views?

Her voting record in Congress is nearly identical to Nancy Pelosi's except for the military (Tulsi tends to favor the armed forces).

other than maybe pull some of her followers with her.   but how will they vote?  it also does not matter if they cheat more this time.

Does she need reelected? Is she going to get reelected as a lefty? Well I guess that would be an overwhelming reason the lie...



Let's see...

She ran for the DNC's presidential nomination in 2020... and failed.

She now wants to be Trump's VP
https://www.newsweek.com/tulsi-gabbards-vice-president-chances-soar-after-donald-trump-remarks-1872446

Sooooo... she gets that job because "she's changed!" Then she does the old Brutus on him... now she's president.

Nope... absolutely no motive to lie.

I wouldn't begin to really pay attention until she's had to bear real material losses in order to maintain those beliefs - when flipping back the other way would have been less painful and profitable to her.

Yep, she is persona non grata with the IC aligned democrats due to a few issues (one  of them involves a country that rhymes with McCain), so she has had a little kick in the right wing direction

Quote from her Wiki article.

In March 2022, she said media freedom in Russia is "not so different" from that in the United States. PolitiFact described her claim as false, noting that in Russia the government represses independent media and free speech

The way the Republicans are in today's politics, we might as well give her the benefit of the doubt. If she does stab the Right in the back, at least it wouldn't be as disappointing as when a so-called solid "conservative" does.

I wouldn't be surprised if she's genuinely been red pilled. I used to be much more left leaning than I currently am, until I joined arfcom. No shit. This place exposed me to many ideas and truths that I just wasn't finding elsewhere. It opened my eyes. Now I'm the most conservative atheist you're likely to ever find. Even to the point I don't like the nation's slide towards atheism. I appreciate my Christian brethren and their efforts more than ever these days. I think her eyes have finally been opened to a lot of truths, the kind that once seen can never be unseen.

The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung him despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: "I am sorry, but I couldn't resist the urge. It's my nature."

This is probably when her fall from grace with the democrats was set in stone:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Arming_Terrorists_Act

She successfully pushed through Rand Paul's act to halt arms supplies  to Al Qaeda. NPR screeched that she was depriving "US Allies" of much needed weapons. This may be why the CIA had Ukraine add her to the same list that Gonzalo Lira was on.

I do believe she has seen the light and speaks the truth.  But I still wouldn't trust her much past whatever brownie points conservatives can score off of her newfound notoriety within her former party.

It was fun watching her go from party rising star to political pariah to literal turncoat, in record time.  All over a beef with FHRC.  Surprised she is still alive TBH.
