Tulsi is a blatant grifter
therin_88@reddit (OP)
Why are so many people in the Tulsi sub anti-Tulsi???
alucidexit@reddit
I liked her when she was a Democrat that criticized the hypocrisies of the DNC candidates. Now that she’s revealed herself to be a traitorous grifter, she can fuck off.
Sregor_Nevets@reddit
I like when she my tribe. No like no more now she not my tribe.
alucidexit@reddit
You must have missed the part where I enjoyed her calling out DNC bullshit.
Sregor_Nevets@reddit
She still does
Shockedge@reddit
But now she's just sucking Trump's dick (metaphorically) to tap into his supporter base. That means changing her value for the purpose of gaining a larger following, which inevitably means alienating her original supporter base
Sregor_Nevets@reddit
What exactly do you mean by that metaphor? Like specifically. Not just some high level indiscernible accusation, but tell me what you think “sucking dick” is here. There is nothing else to respond to unless you can actually talk with specifics.
Shockedge@reddit
Lmao, maybe you should have paid more attention in literature class, this isn't cryptic by any means. She's pivoting her rhetoric to the right and agreeing with all his policies and giving her allegiance to the Trump Train in the hope that she can hop on and progress her career faster/higher than would be possible if she stayed true to the principals she was preaching pre 2020.
Sregor_Nevets@reddit
You don’t know what specific is.
Shockedge@reddit
Watch her videos and understand that she literally works for the Trump campaign team. She was not aligned with him whatsoever several years ago. But yet, someone says her sudden shift is because of us, her previous supporters, because we didn't donate enough. I said it's because it was a small crowd.
Do I need to describe what it means to sell out?
No_Competition4553@reddit
Y'all wasn't donating to Tulsi enough so she said ✌🏿.
☹️
Shockedge@reddit
People are attracted to like minded candidates. Originally, Tulsi's views and agenda were fairly unique to her, but there are only so many people who shared her ideals. People with a niche audience who refuse to sell out once they hit a plateau are rare.
DreyDarian@reddit
Yeah but god forbid someone leaves the party you soooo love to shit on lmao
traeville@reddit
I’ve come to understand that most personality-based subreddits exist so people can provide a one-sided take on it. These are the parts of Reddit which resemble other social media, and it causes me to avoid these and gravitate towards topical/conceptual/intelligent subreddits.
No_Competition4553@reddit
Because it's America and a free country. That's what she tells us.
jstohler@reddit
Because everyone remembers who she used to be.
iLikeSmallGuns@reddit
The democrat party is the grifter. They are extreme now. I was all in on Biden in 2020, and I was wrong.
alucidexit@reddit
lol k
iCyouNurse@reddit
Love Tulsi! ♥️❤️♥️
RonPaulLov3r@reddit
Idk why your getting downvoted. I fixed it by one.
I too infact have been a fan of hers for a long time. She's on team drain the swamp and I support any who are willing to speak out against it.
People are allowed to like who they want! People get a grip!
leenis@reddit
she's on team "drain the swamp"
she's on team the swamp
fixed it for you
RonPaulLov3r@reddit
The swamp wanted endless occupation and subjugation. Not Tulsi, so clearly there is a disconnect!
No_Competition4553@reddit
She's in the swamp right now. It's orange.
iCyouNurse@reddit
It’s red white and blue and it’s called America. Not sure what orange means
No_Competition4553@reddit
Figure it out.
No_Competition4553@reddit
So what is Trump exactly? He's been impeached twice, stole classified docs, and attempted to overturn an election..... Sounds like an orange swamp to me.
iCyouNurse@reddit
It’s okay.
WhitePantherXP@reddit
She mentions killing people using the military on our own soil, where Trump literally said he's prepared to do just that (source video from the horses mouth).
jwinf843@reddit
Did you watch your own video? He doesn't say anything about killing people
WhitePantherXP@reddit
My apologies, he says he is willing to use the military on civilians if necessary. If you take it to mean the military (i.e. NOT the National Guard) will somehow re-equip with entirely non-lethal then I suppose you are correct.
jwinf843@reddit
Look at the context of the conversation; he's being asked what he would do to end rioting after the election.
We all know he asked for an was denied National Guard to control the protest on January 6th, and consistently refused to use military to end violence during the George Floyd riots.
Joe Biden deployed the military as a precaution during his inauguration, so by your logic he has already "used the military" against the people, right?
No_Competition4553@reddit
He did not ask for the national guard. I wish y'all would stop believing that lie.
He did not refuse to use military during the George Floyd protests, his advisors refused to do it.
VetGranDude@reddit
Is Trump a liar? If so, why do soooo many people say he's lying about most things, but they also hand-pick specific soundbites and act like those are 100% truthful?
But let's pretend for a moment he's telling the truth. That will never happen. No way in hell. People say "never say never"...well, I'm saying there's absolutely no way Congress, the legal system, or our military officers will ever let that happen. Trump is just being a bombastic buffoon to rile up his base. He's completely full of shit.
wizpiggleton@reddit
Well when he says similar bad things behind closed doors it's not hard to figure him out.
Overall, by this point Trump is not an enigma, he's shown his playbook. We know what he has folllowed through with and what he attempted to do.
It isn't enough to just be like well you say well some people say he lies and some people say he's telling the truth, throw your hands up and end it there when it comes to politics. That's just intellectually lazy. How do you measure the weight of someone's words? Define that for yourself and be critical and reflective about it.
In any case, from my point of view to entertain needlessly playing around with fire... it's how things get out of control.
You're basically saying he's going to test how well our political guardrails can hold? Yeah I'm not interested.
WhitePantherXP@reddit
He's put the word out that he wants officers as loyal as Hitler's were to him. I don't think it's unconscionable to say he's willing to sidestep the Constitution, let alone legal obstacles as he's shown to do previously. That said, I do believe he's riling up his base (and putting fear into opposition) with this as it will be a giant leap from previous behavior.
rundabrun@reddit
I regret my vote for her in the Dem primary more and more every day. I regret getting other people to vote for her even more. What a disgrace. The Democratic party fucked her over and they are trash, but then she goes to Trump. It shows she has no real compass besides pointing towards where she thinks the money is.
RonPaulLov3r@reddit
Whats wrong with her going to Trump? I'm glad shes in his ear telling him about her expertise. Foreign policy.
No_Competition4553@reddit
He attempted to overturn the 2020 election, extorted a foreign leader to try to get him to investigate his political opponent and stole classified documents and then instructed the investigation.
That's just some of them. You think that is ok?
therin_88@reddit (OP)
He did none of those things, lol.

Now...I have given you non "leftist" sources. What will be your next excuse?
therin_88@reddit (OP)
These are just articles showing that he's been accused of doing things. Every indictment and accusation brought against him has been an attack by left the turn him into an unelectable candidate.
You should probably go read Tulsi's book. It might help you understand what we're fighting against.
No_Competition4553@reddit
What is stopping you from reading the indictments? Truth?
Rude-Satisfaction508@reddit
There is no sign of intelligence detected.
RonPaulLov3r@reddit
We should be happy that Trump has such wise voices in his ear. Tulsi for foreign policy (Of which we desperately needed) And RFK JR for Health issues(Of which we also desperately needed) and transparency via the JFK files and possibly even the MLK JR files (Which we also desperately need)
None of what you have said I really care about to be blunt.
I don't really believe that we should push eachother apart I could just as easily dunk on Kamala for jailing black mothers of disabled children who were not able to attend school and laughing about it and shunning any who support her. But I wont. And the same can be said for Biden and more.
So why not work together?
No_Competition4553@reddit
Not caring about a president attempting to overturn an election.. yikes.
RonPaulLov3r@reddit
I mean did you care about Russiagate...? Yikers!!! A blatant attempt to overturn the election on a LIE.
How about when Harris and Waltz said 'There is no guarantee to free speech on misinformation'
YIKERSSS!!!
News flash dude!!
The government and political elite has lied far to much. I can cite endlessly. Weapons of mass destruction? So on and so on and so on.
It is not the peoples fault they do not trust the government and political elite.
It's the governments fault.
Tough pill to swallow... Yikes!! Run back to mommy.

High Definition grift
iLikeSmallGuns@reddit
Tulsi is very moderate and that’s why I like her. She has common sense and she’s in the perfect spot now.
therin_88@reddit (OP)
I fully agree.
I hope Trump wins and selects her for Secretary of State. Tulsi will keep America safe.
OriginnalThoughts@reddit
100% agree. I've followed Tulsi over to the MAGA train. It's a dream team with RFK Jr.
Finkufreakee@reddit
Yummy!
Mookhaz@reddit
you can tell she is embodying the dear mongering rhetoric of the right that she used to ignore. She realized the aloha vibes she utilized when campaigning for Bernie from 2016 weren’t working. notice didn’t address madison square garden with “aloha” It was “HALLO NEW YORK!”
shes code switching to the fear narrative. It’s sad to watch.
therin_88@reddit (OP)
Why are you in a Tulsi sub?
runescapelover12@reddit
I think a majority of people in this Sub are former Tulsi fans who realized her views don't align with their own but never unfollowed.
streetwearbonanza@reddit
Me
No_Competition4553@reddit
I find it fascinating how the new Tulsi fans just ignore the red flags because she's telling them what they want to hear.
therin_88@reddit (OP)
I liked her in 2019, I didn't agree with everything she said but she was by far my favorite Democrat candidate. Now that she's on the right team I'm in love.
leenis@reddit
THAT'S why she's still quasi-popular, lol
buncha smooth brains, the lot of you
Mookhaz@reddit
I’ve been following her since 2016. She fascinates me. I have a lot of friends I’ll who followed the Bernie to maga pipeline. It’s like a personal sociological interest.
leenis@reddit
none of my friends have gone bernie to maga but i'm here for the same reason. she's such a textbook case of grift and it's incredible to watch people fall for it
felixthewug_03@reddit
Exactly this. Yeah the gullibility of some of the people on this sub especially is just mind-blowing.
How people fall for this is beyond me.
No_Competition4553@reddit
She's literally accusing KH of things Trump has done and is currently saying and they're like... Trump Trump Trump!
🥴
Mookhaz@reddit
The money has always been on the right for grifters. I think she had to play the democratic card to get her foot in the door since Hawaii is, for all intents and purposes, a one party state, so the democratic party there is actually fairly conservative as a result. People tried to tell me she was a conservative, about her father, but I wouldn’t have believed she would do the full 180.
Bernie made it clear it was about “us not me” while trump will be the first to tell you he is the only one that can save this country. Just the mental Gymnastics tulsi had to perform to go from backing the person trying to empower us all to the person who preys on people with daddy issues deserves a book.
No_Competition4553@reddit
The wild thing about Tulsi's dad is he's distanced himself from her lol.
tuepm@reddit
lol. she just recently completely reversed all of her positions, don't you think some people who liked the last iteration of her would still be on this sub?
iLikeSmallGuns@reddit
People can change when they see clear corruption and the erosion of the bill of rights. That’s right, I said rights.
felixthewug_03@reddit
.. Yikes
No_Competition4553@reddit
The irony of talking aboiut using the military against Americans when Trump tried to do it multiple times and currently on the campaign talking about it.
