Just to be clear, there are legitimate criticisms to be made of Gabbard, but the "she palled around with a brutal dictator!!!!" talking point -- which unites hordes of angry liberals and neocons against her -- is pure propagandistic nonsensehttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1065302784583626758 …

Oh really? And what was her reason for this Tweet? Or for hiring DC fixer Chris Cooper of The Potomac Square group to discredit me to an editor? Or for always running from local journalists in HI?https://mobile.twitter.com/tulsigabbard/status/649615636088365058?lang=en …
