Tulsi Gabbard can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party

I'm trying to understand the argument that Gabbard was never a Democrat. Looking at her policy positions she was for Medicare For All, $15 minimum wage, supports federal funding for abortion, free college, stated support for the Green New Deal and a big supporter of gun control. I know everyone doesn't fit into a neat little box but you certainly aren't going to see many Republicans running on those positions. So if those aren't progressive positions I'm not sure what are.
 
Nothing is more entertaining than a liberal that is starting to come to their senses. Bill Mahr also fits in that group.

Yep, I like Gabbart but she has supported Democrat policies that I'm not down with. But I believe she is an honorable person who wants to do the right thing.
 
I'm not sure how anyone can stomach either of the Big Two political parties right now. I've been waiting for a Rand Paul/Tulsi Gabbard presidential ticket for years. I'd love to see sane people/politicians start a new party.

Nah. That's the Biden Regime. He's been funneling them billions of dollars under the guise of COVID, and you're all for it, so don't pretend to be anti Wall St/Big Harma when you support the politicians and policies that enable those "elites".

There's no need. They're welcome in the MAGA wing of the Republican Party. Manchin would refuse because he's actually part of the DNC/RNC club. Gabbard? Who knows...

This is what I don't get. Trump ran ads against socialism, especially trying to appeal to certain Hispanic voters. From an American perspective Gabbard is essentially a socialist. Yet you say she's welcome in the MAGA wing of the party? I understand big tent and all but now socialism is ok?

The Demonkkkrat communists who control the DNC (and their mindless NPCs who keep voting for them) don't like people like Gabbard who can come together with conservatives on vital foundations such as basic rights/freedoms, a constitutional form of government, a controlled border, reduced crime, etc. even though she holds leftist views on a number of other issues.
