Tulsi Gabbard’s presidential campaign hasn’t officially launched yet but it’s already melting down.
Two-and-a-half weeks after the Hawaii Democrat told CNN she had decided to run for the White House—an announcement that even her own staff didn't know was coming, after weeks of debating the timing of the rollout—the 37-year-old congresswoman has struggled to contain the chaos.
That her campaign is imploding doesn't bother me. Dems already have several very acceptable candidates.
I think of Gabbard as a "white shirt."....You know, when you go to the store to buy one white shirt and there are literally a slew of them offered from different brands, in slightly varying styles and made using various yet not materially different cottons and button materials, and any one of them would be just fine. I just don't need that much choice because while I'm plenty discerning, I'm not that picky.

You don't pick a fight with Mazie Hirono. You just don't. Gabbard's staff were shocked that she decided to run, and she has the potential to lose everything if she continues with the campaign. Second one to bite the dust??? This all despite her flippy/Putin praising weird policy stances.

Not Donald Trump.
That worked so well in 2016

That also wasn't the qualifier, and Trump hadn't already shown what a disaster he'd be. Nice try.
I get the feeling sometimes that you really don't know what you're talking about.

The guy is a trainwreck and 57% of the voting public sees it so clearly, they've stated in several polls they will "definitely" not vote for him.Trump's approval ratings are higher than Reagan when he was up for re-election.
No way Trump losses.

That's assuming the douche even runs, which I seriously doubt.
If you think Trump is going to ever a snowball's chance in hell of winning Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin again, you are out of your mind.If you think Trump is going to lose states like Florida, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, etc... you are DREAMING!
All the wackos can vote against Trump in the west coast...you don't have an advantage for winning landslides.
God bless the electoral college.

You can keep ignoring public surveys, but they were dead on for the midterms.
Nope.Didn't you predict Paul Ryan would lose his seat to a Democrat? Ya, didn't happen.

Yeah, the democrats have been splintering for a while now. Since Ocazio joined in and started threatening other democrats with being primaried. This on the other hand, might not of been that bad, though it is still surprising.
I have been involved in Democratic Party politics since 1970 and I have never seen the party as united as it is today. Regardless of the personal views of different members on various issues - there is one very very strong belief that unites the party and that is to get rid of Trump as president.
If Republicans hope for a divided Democratic Party in 2020 - they have a surprise coming to them.
In World War II, the Allied Powers had the political opposites in the USA and the Soviet Union working together to defeat a common enemy. Republicans would do well to remember that one hated powerful enemy has the ability to unite those against them.
You can consolidate all this down to the reaction the other night at that book store in New York City when a member of the audience loudly told Starbucks billionaire Schultz that any effort he would make only helps elect Trump. Democrats are focused like a laser beam on Trump and they will not be divided - not matter how much Trumpkins hope and pray for it.
