I’m still waiting for your response to her Sisi quote given it’s clear that you’re not just being a Devil’s advocate but are bent on defending her and promoting her.

I'm still waiting for you to clarify how a Sisi quote is responsive to my point about Assad, which is the tweet you responded to.

Easy. My case is she likes awful people. Sisi is one example. I provided a quote. You’re right - I don’t have a quote of her *praising* Assad, but I do for Sisi. You can deflect with Assad all you like but what’s your response re Sisi? Anything?

How could I possibly be "deflecting with Assad" when my original point was about Assad? You deflected by interjecting with Sisi. And you've done the exact same thing in the past. Happy to have a separate discussion about Sisi, but not instigated by your deflection.

Simple question: what do you make of Gabbard’s support for Sisi? (I’ve already conceded that you’re right, there is no quote from her praising Assad. But there is a quote from her praising Sisi.)

Great, that's actually a really important concession, because as you can probably tell by the popular media portrayal of her, lots of people think otherwise. As for the Sisi quote, it seems to be referring to counter-ISIS efforts. I don't like the overly-flattering language.

That’s a cop out and you know it. Sisi is a brutal dictator and mass murderer, not to mention a recruiting sergeant for ISIS, and she was endorsing his leadership as courageous and legitimizing his rule.https://gabbard.house.gov/news/press-releases/photos-rep-tulsi-gabbard-meets-egypt-president-el-sisi-and-other-leaders-cairo …

That's actually a ridiculous smear leveled by an obsessive troll who's been doing it nonstop for almost three years, but yeah, totally the case.
