  • Diplomacy with fucking Assad certainly never reduced war or death.

    Gabbard said they discussed her meeting with Assad and stressed the importance of meeting “with adversaries or potential adversaries, not just our friends, if we are serious about the pursuit of peace.”

    Asked if she viewed Assad as an “adversary” of the US, Gabbard demurred and said it was important to look at who posed a threat to the US and how the interests of other nations compare to those of the US.

    Pressed on the point, she said, “You can describe it however you want to describe it.”

    When asked later in the interview if she thought Assad was a good person, Gabbard said, “No, I don’t,” and asked if Russian President Vladimir Putin was an adversary to the US, she responded, “Yes.”

    I bet 80+ years ago you would have been the type to advocate the USA allying with actual Adolf Hitler.

    Gabbards stance against Assad is exactly equal to America’s in 1945.

    I’ve got an idea to win the case quickly and cleanly: not have anything to do with Russia and having the court send Clinton the bill (pun not intended).

    That is a shitty, and ironically slow and expensive, idea.



  • She has been non-interventionist and spoke positively of Vladimir Putin and Bashar al-Assad for decades.

    Diplomatic can often be confused with positivity

    Gabbard supported Bernie Sanders for president even after Sanders asked people to vote for Hillary Clinton.

    No, before

    When Russia Invaded Ukraine she parroted Kremlin Newspapers on the false claims that the USA operated 36 Biolabs in Ukraine.

    Well, The US did fund biolabs in the Ukraine.

    She sued Hillary Clinton for calling her a Russian Asset for some good press but then dropped the suit shortly after announcing it to the news. Meaning she thought Hillary could have actually won such a case if it went to court.

    Meaning value was gained in publicity and saved in legal fees.
