I'm pretty sure the suspicion has more to do with her evolving positions than details of local Hawaiian politics. I'm personally glad for her sake that she appears to be changing. But when evaluating leadership, I'm looking progressive leaders, not progressive evolvers.

I don’t know what Tracey is talking about and I’m from Hawaii. I will say that re: local issues, people talk about her connection to that weird guru/cult growing up, and how it seems she’s never disavowed him. That actually doesn’t seem to be getting much playtime nationally.

She's also being hated by the pro-Muslim leftwing crowd for being Hindu under the guise of connecting her to "Hindutva" and Hindu nationalism.

Hindutva is being maligned as an extremist movement which is insane. There has to be vested interests.
