So...someone suggested we listen to the Tulsi Gabbard interview with Joe Roegan, so....I watched it.

Honestly? They spent most of the time discussing Bernie Sanders policies, where she seemed basically agreed with Bernie on basically everything (although she had a slightly different focus when it came to education). Or alternatively Hawaii policies as that's her home state and she's focused on it.

Biggest red flag to me is that when they got onto the subject of internet media telling the story that corporate media does not, her one example was fucking Jimmy Dore. I mean, Jimmy Dore's politics proooobably aren't that far from mine on the left-right spectrum, but he comes across as a total asshole to me.

Anyway I'd be OKish with her as a presidential candidate based purely on that interview (haven't looked into the Assad stuff) but like...in practical terms I feel like if Bernie is running she's going to have trouble getting out from his shadow. And I don't particularly see a reason Bernie wouldn't run unless he suddenly develops health problems. He's basically the same age as Biden, and everyone is assuming Biden will run.
