Matt Taibbi of the Rolling Stone has also some words about Clintons conspiracy theory: https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/political-commentary/clinton-gabbard-russian-asset-jill-stein-901593/

And everyone thinking I have an anti-Clinton bias: you're right. I think Clinton is the reason Trump won in 2016. And instead of accepting her errors she blames her loss on some crazy conspiracy theories. Trump has pushed a lot of 'alternative facts', but in regards to these conspiracy theories Clinton is not far away. The problem is, that she is still very influential to the democratic party and this shit clearly damages the party and the new candidates.

Want some bad news?

I would actually be fine with her running, because it would become clear that people aren't too much into her as a candidate, as long as there are a lot of alternatives. 2016 only Sanders and O'Malley stayed in the race until Iowa as competitors. Sanders back then was pretty unknown and didn't even think himself initially to have a chance, but got a strong result on account of simply not being Hillary Clinton. This time the field has much more and much better alternatives, so I am pretty certain a Clinton candidacy would flop.

Yes, I understand the various reasons, that's nothing new to me. It's just in Tulsi's case it seems like a net negative for her.

Thanks!

Its easy when it comes to Tulsi. She's not doing it to benefit herself, she's doing it to bring attention to the regime change wars we've waged and on ending the wars. On foreign policy she's easily the furthest left and her entire thing is dragging the party left on foreign policy. She's not an isolationist btw, she's just anti-interventions and for diplomacy first. On top of that she's in for exposing the corruption in the dem party and the entire system when it comes to going against the MIC. Honestly, she's clearly trying to win to force this push and while I like her, I don't think she's the best choice for president right now.

What did she do, then?

As an outsider from the US, I'm not subject to your propaganda umbrella. The reason the Democrats lost was all the Bernie or Bust campaign. This was a group of 26% of Bernie Sanders supporters who not only didn't vote Democratic, but about half of whom actually voted for Trump. Then there was the massive anti-Democratic Party campaign from the Bernie or Bust people, the ultimate useful idiocy.

Oh, watch out. You're walking into extremely dangerous territory in this thread.

This 26% number seems interestingly concrete. Any source for that?

EDIT: And to the 'What did she do'-part: I just wrote it… she spouted some completely unfounded crazy conspiracy theory tailored to divide the supporters of the democratic party and rile them up against some people. That is extremely damaging and therefore helping Trump.

And theres a pretty good thing for Warren:
