3. The arc of someone like Gabbard or Yang is best understood not in ideological terms but in terms of career options. The Democrats don't have a lot of room for ambitious young people to rise in ranks, so some younger pols try (usually with poor results) to carve own path.

Okay, fine, but it's an asinine tweet. Hillary Clinton (who obviously is to blame for everything ever) didn't pretend Gabbard was employed by Russia. She said the Kremlin was backing someone (ie Tulsi). The Kremlin was, and continued to do so! In that sense, "asset" was accurate.

That use of "assets" could lead to all sort of McCarthyism. Let's say Kremlin preferred Obama to Romney in 2012 (likely): was Obama an "asset"?
