I find the Hillary Clinton/Tulsi Gabbard bashup to be entertaining

Hillary has now seen fit to expand Russiagate to a Democratic political rival by saying she is a Russian asset.

On a podcast, instead of a journalistic interview, where there would be questions.

ZERO actual evidence presented!

This is a clumsy mistake in all ways. Suggesting Russiagate applies to a political rival makes it seem like more obvious that Russiagate is conspiracy theory.

Suggesting it about someone who's active military personnel and a Congresswoman who is vetted for national security is nuts.

The move only empowers Gabbard, whose numbers will surely rise.

Bill was always able to use his political power with aplomb. He could sense what was needed, and how things would play out. Hillary uses it like the proverbial bull in a china shop. She's never had his particular skill.

Tulsi may be the perfect candidate to run against Trump; being a beautiful younger woman AND shrewd and very smart, she would be a target that he cannot attack in the usual ways. It would queer his game theory; this is something he's never had to deal with on a public stage. It won't happen; Tulsi is an outlier, and people will be too suspicious of her to vote for her.

But it's entertaining.
