This. I dont get the hate from Dems about her. Should have been a Bernie/Tulsi ticket with her stepping in after 4 years as VP.

LMFAO. The only reason she went with the Democratic party in the first place, is because she knew that by going Republican, she would've been stomped by the people in her state.

Check her background & her voting records.

She supports legalizing drugs, legalizing prostitution (only candidate to do so), complete removal of all abortion restrictions, she wanted to abolish citizens United / corporate personhood, restore glass-steagall, free tuition for college, etc etc.

Feel free to name a republican politician that wants any of that shit.

But guess what she didn't do?

  • She didn't vote on Trump's impeachment.
  • She didn't vote on the "Raise the Wage Act".
  • She didn't vote on finding William Barr & Wilbur Ross in contempt of Congress for Refusal to Comply with Subpoenas Duly Issued by The Committee on Oversight and Reform.
  • She voted "No" on both the "National Defense Authorization Act" for Fiscal Year 2020 & on the "USA Freedom Reauthorization Act" of 2020.
I can go on & on.

Tulsi is cool. Party loyalists dislike her because she went rogue and supported Bernie in 2016. She was literally a DNC vice-chair prior to that and well regarded in the party.

The defense authorization act is just the military budget. AOC voted down a similar bill because it funded ICE so unless you know more about why she voted no, that is a meaningless statement.

But sure let's keep going.

Voted No to FREEDOM Reauthorization (that's a doozy, should look up who voted yes for that one, almost all republicans)

I lost all respect for her when she voted "Present" for impeachment.

If you don't think he should be impeached then say so. Or impeach him.

Lacking the balls to say what you think when you're supposed to be an elected representative makes you a piece of shit.

The fact of the matter is, if she was truly a real Democrat, she would've voted "Yes" on even more important issues on the other three subjects that I've mentioned, including "Protecting American Lungs and Reversing the Youth Tobacco Epidemic Act", "Protecting America's Wilderness Act", "Expressing disapproval of the Trump administration's harmful actions towards Medicaid", etc. She wouldn't just pick & choose.

"If a politician thinks for themselves instead of lining up with the cartoon archetypes we have for political parties, they don't count"

Why do people think like this? Is it that hard to have unique opinions?

I mean I don't have time to read every single bill (even the fucking congressmen don't) but let's look at this one right here, HR 2339

  • Prohibits marketing, advertising, or promoting any electronic nicotine delivery system in a manner that appeals to an individual under 21 years of age (Sec. 201). already illegal why you don't see Joe camel anymore
  • Prohibits marketing, advertising, promoting, or endorsing any electronic nicotine delivery system without clearly disclosing that the communication is an advertisement unless the communication is unambiguously identifiable as an advertisement, and prohibits compensating any person for such actions (Sec. 201). so real tobacco can have ads but not ecigs? That doesn't make any fucking sense
  • Defines electronic nicotine delivery system as a tobacco product that is an electrical device which delivers nicotine, flavor, or another substance via an aerosolized solution to the user inhaling from the device and any component, liquid, part, or accessory of such a device, including e-cigarettes, e-hookah, e-cigars, vape pens, advanced refillable personal vaporizers, and electronic pipes (Sec. 201). just definitions
  • Prohibits a tobacco product that is not an electronic nicotine delivery system from containing an additive of an artificial or natural flavor that characterizes the flavor of the tobacco product, including menthol, mint, mango, strawberry, grape, orange, clove, cinnamon, pineapple, vanilla, coconut, licorice, cocoa, chocolate, cherry, or coffee (Sec. 103). All flavors besides menthol were already illegal
  • Exempts cigars from pre-market review if the cigar (Sec. 108): gosh thanks for making sure the literal most dangerous form of smoking is exempt. Like look at the list below. Nonfilter ok, filter banned. What the fuck.
  • Is wrapped in whole tobacco leaf;
  • Contains a 100 percent leaf tobacco binder;
  • Contains primarily long filler tobacco;
  • Does not have a characterizing flavor other than tobacco;
  • Weighs more than 6 pounds per 100 units; and
  • Has no filter, tip, or non-tobacco mouthpiece.
  • Establishes an excise tax on nicotine manufactured in or imported into the United States and used in vaping (Sec. 501). ok?
  • Requires the US Comptroller General to complete a study and submit its results to Congress on (Sec. 402): nice provision here but not really a big deal
  • The relationship of e-cigarettes to tobacco cessation;
  • The preception of the harmful effects of e-cigarettes; and
  • The effects of secondhand exposure to smoke from e-cigarettes.
Can't say I blame her for not voting on this one.
