Hawaii Rep. (D) Tulsi Gabbard is a combat hero and extremely popular in Hawaii. She is ‘supposed’ to be a Vice-Chair of the DNC (!) and being a Hindu in Hawaii’s pluralistic population, she has always embraced ‘inclusion’ and debate.
For her to be DIS-INVITED has outraged my democratic friends back in Hawaii. The state has been a DEM machine since it was formed, and the grass roots friends I have there are shocked by this. There WILL be BLOWBACK, I’m quite sure. Might even persuade some lifelong Dems to vote Republican this time around. Rep . Mark Takai was outraged today. Tulsi will be in town making the news rounds tomorrow, I think. I will try to dig up a video interview with her tomorrow to see what choice comments she has.
I think the DEMs just Shat in their own nest..
