The Odd Conservative Love Affair With Tulsi Gabbard

Guest Post by Kurt Schlichter

The Odd Conservative Love Affair With Tulsi Gabbard

I think I know what the deal is with all the gushing adoration Tulsi Gabbard has somehow managed to wrangle from ordinarily sensible conservatives. Think of a regular guy walking down the hall in high school, and the head cheerleader passes by and says, “Hi.” The dude’s going to think she’s awesome. Of course, just because she is polite doesn’t mean Regular Joe is ever going to take her to the prom.

Tulsi gets Strange New Conservative Respect for several reasons, but the primary one is that she doesn’t seem to hate our guts. She is what an opponent should be – an opponent, not an enemy. Let’s face it – the mainstream Democrat Party hates our guts, and given its malignant druthers it would strip us of our First, Second, and probably Third Amendment rights in order to make sure that we never, ever have a say in our own governance again. Then, with us silenced and disarmed, it would take our money, corrupt our children and generally oppress us in ways that make today’s punitive straw bans look tame. If you don’t believe that a scary number of mainstream lefties want us Normals enslaved or dead, well, you’re either in denial or not on social media.

Make no mistake – Tulsi is not one of us conservatives, though the kind of leftism she embraces (which owes a lot to the socialism of Bernie Sanders) shares some superficial similarities to the populism that has swept the GOP base. In many ways, we share her critique of an inept, corrupt ruling caste eager to send non-elite citizens off to fight their endless, mismanaged wars. We also share a critique of Big Business as a crony capitalist simulacrum of free enterprise, basically a bunch of rich jerks sidling up to the leaders of both parties to repeatedly shaft us regular folks to pump up a few digits on their balance sheets.

That Tulsi will take on the corrupt leaders of her garbage party, like Felonia Milhouse von Pantsuit, is certainly a welcome change from the lockstep stonewalling we have seen from the others – “Why, I see nothing wrong with Toots McHoover Biden peeing hot then getting 50 grand a month from an oligarch, and if you do you’re racist!” When Mee Maw got into the cooking sherry again and started calling her a “Russian asset,” you knew Tulsi was drawing blood from Ole Granny Reset Button. That charge is particularly amusing since Major Gabbard is an Army officer and a veteran of the elite’s dumb wars – another thing the right appreciates about her. But then everyone is a Russian agent these days. We cons get the same insane idiocy, and not just the president. My Twitter conversations on this topic tend to go like this:

“You’re a Russian traitor of treason just like Trump!”

I was literally an Army officer in the Cold War.

“You are betraying America and our allies!”

I served in NATO for years and have a NATO medal.

“You love Putin!”

I served with and helped train Ukrainians, who are fighting Putin’s Russia.

“See! You admit it!”

Gabbard is far more open to Assad than many of us cons like, but her opposition to the Fredocon warmonger model (like the opposition of many woke conservatives) seems to come from a place of genuine concern for the troops she serves and served with. Unlike most of the rest of her rivals, dead American warriors are not an abstraction. Moreover, you get the idea that, alone among the faux Cherokees, naggy mistresses, and militant furries up there on the Democrat debate stage, Tulsi actually likes America, and Americans.

The Gabbard Left and the Trump Right share the conclusion that our elite sucks and that it has forfeited any moral authority to lead our country, but the similarity ends there. She is not conservative and is not traditional. Just because she has doubts about offing babies in the third trimester, as opposed to supporting abortion until high school graduation, does not make her pro-life. She would take your guns, she would take your money, and she would generally make Barack Obama look like William F. Buckley.

Sometimes we forget that Tulsi is a leftist, and that she would screw up health care, open the borders and impose all sorts of climate hoax nonsense. A key difference from us, when you get past the surface similarities, is that she and her ilk have faith in the idea that government can take on more and more responsibilities, despite the fact that it has demonstrated that it cannot handle those responsibilities it already has, which themselves are mostly far beyond what government should be doing in the first place.

There’s another issue, the fox in the room if you will, that we need to address, and it is not an indictment of Tulsi Gabbard. It’s her storied looks. She is pretty, and she does not give off the man-hating vibe of the rest of her competitors (this also goes for the nominal men on the stage). Tulsi certainly plays it up – those yoga-pants workout videos are not just to reassure us about her cardiovascular fitness. But the fact that she is a woman comfortable with being traditionally feminine gives her a leg up on that squad of bitter, spinster librarians she is running against.

Again, this is not a diss against her. She is a serious person with serious ideas who just happens not to be a typically hateful liberal harridan. This is a recognition that good looks can sometimes act on an unconscious level to make her more attractive (in a meta sense) to those who might otherwise reject her based on her politics. In other words, this is a hit on those conservative males (and it’s mostly males) who go gaga over her pretty face and refuse to see that underneath the mask, it’s really Bernice Sanders.

So, don’t fall for Tulsi Gabbard, because just because we agree on a few things does not mean that her quirky brand of New Age socialism is acceptable. But then again, what she represents in terms of presentation is entirely laudable. She is what an American political opponent should be – a person you can discuss issues with without someone ripping out the other’s throat. We should not aspire to a political culture where we hate the folks in the other party – that current reality is immensely destructive and dangerous. Tulsi represents someone who says “Hi” to us in the hallway, and who we can say “Hi” right back to with no expectation of ever taking her to the prom.

If Tulsi Gabbard became Chairperson of the Central Committee of the socialist dictatorship our garbage elite is dying to impose upon us, she at least might not pack all of us deplorables off to the Hillary Fun Camps. That’s something. If you want a closer look at the kind of nightmarish hellscape the other leftists would create, check out my action-packed yet hilarious novels of America torn apart by liberal malice, People’s RepublicIndian Country and Wildfire (Number IV, Collapse, is done and drops in November). The Lido Deck losers at The Bulwark, whatever that is, call my books “appalling,” but you’ll want to give them a lusty “Ahoy!”

Just recall, Owebomber and Trump also ran as ‘anti-war’ candidates. Frankly, Bush the Shrub also ran as a non-interventionist.

Not saying her claimed position isn’t actual, for now.

Is there anything more frustrating than explaining to someone why you hold an opinion only to have them tell you that you are wrong?

Conservatives don’t have a “love affair” with Tulsi Gabbard, they are simply enjoying a front row seat to and internecine donnybrook. We love watching both sides get bloodied because this is what “conservatives” have been doing to each other for as long as I have been alive. Usually the left refuses to swing at each other, Their solidarity has always been their greatest strength no matter how divided their loyalties to a specific candidate. The whole DNC rape of Bernie’s 2016 campaign knocked the rose colored problem glasses off a lot of xe/xer/xizzles and now they’re coming out against their own establishment figureheads. That’s the part we’re having a love affair with, not the characters. Tulsi Gabbard is one of the most conflicted and disloyal human beings in this race- she can’t maintain a single issue without contradicting herself because she’s callow and not that bright (listen to her vocabulary rather than her cadence- she is extremely articulate for a 20 year old, if you catch my drift). No conservative is within a parsec of her politically, it’s the bum fight we’re here to see.

DING!

Kurt calls her a (air) head cheerleader and paints Hillary as an evil (cat lady) librarian. He mentions rich jerks (jocks) and paints himself as a regular (conservative) joe. Cheerleaders are not known for being brainy like librarians. However, librarians are not known for being evil.

Kurt’s article could have gone in a different and better direction but he got too enthusiastic about name-calling that he lost his original idea; the conservative love affair with Tulsi is that she is a cheerleader just like airheaded Trump.

I didn’t give you a thumbs down, but I will respond.

“Is there anything more frustrating than explaining to someone why you hold an opinion only to have them tell you that you are wrong?”

Couldn’t agree more. It has become a very common theme among writer’s posted here. Schlicter does it routinely as does Z-man and others.

I personally like Gabbard, have for years before she had any msm coverage at all. (I think Stucky posted a video of her here 4-5 years ago.) I think it is too harsh to call her “not that bright” but ultimately that doesn’t matter. She is poised and has guts. That is what we respond to and yes, she is attractive and I’m sure that I am responding to that as well. Sure, she hasn’t though most of her positions all the way down, but there is no all the way down. Every idea has some kernel of merit that their zealots cling to, while having to ignore so many other avenues of thought (Vonnegut passage came to mind just now, so I had to paste it below.) She is no intellectual giant, but no dullard either. The point is that she is head and shoulders above the field, above any politician we’ve seen for a very long time. But she is still a politician and nuance–the genuine philosophical grinding away to find tiny bits of truth in the infinite web of complexity of existence–is death to a politician.

To the article.

Saying things like “Tulsi gets Strange New Conservative Respect” misses me entirely. What is that exactly? A political organization is capable of giving such a thing as respect? A personality spectrum shared by those who call themselves conservative?

These things have no real meaning, except to demonstrate the group think exists on all sides. Setting individual identity paramount is fundamental to liberty, which is fundamental to thriving human societies. Groups form from free association. Using the power of group identity is the politicians game. We all need to stop playing it…Schlicter (I can’t get the odd mashup of ass-licker and sphincter out of my head) should consider starting with himself.

Ultimately, you are right of course, the whole thing needs to be burnt down. The notion that just the “good” parts of our institutions can be rescued (Dave Rubins “Pantther in a China Shop” idea) is absurd. Human beings en masse simply don’t operate that way. We tend to go overboard with the razing process and think about the repercussions when its much too late. Trump is a far better instrument for this than the best statesman in history ever could be.

The left eating itself, as has been inevitable since the installment of the term “political correctness” into the lexicon, is a veritable smorgasbord of delicious schudenfreude. 🙂

Typical rambling incoherence I know, but maybe there are a few kernels worth digesting.

Not to someone who could hold their thoughts together on the page:

“I have never seen a more sublime demonstration of the totalitarian mind, a mind which might be linked unto a system of gears where teeth have been filed off at random. Such snaggle-toothed thought machine, driven by a standard or even by a substandard libido, whirls with the jerky, noisy, gaudy pointlessness of a cuckoo clock in Hell.
The boss G-man concluded wrongly that there were no teeth on the gears in the mind of Jones. ‘You’re completely crazy,’ he said.
Jones wasn’t completely crazy. The dismaying thing about classic totalitarian mind is that any given gear, thought mutilated, will have at its circumference unbroken sequences of teeth that are immaculately maintained, that are exquisitely machined.
Hence the cuckoo clock in Hell – keeping perfect time for eight minutes and twenty-three seconds, jumping ahead fourteen minutes, keeping perfect time for six seconds, jumping ahead two seconds, keeping perfect time for two hours and one second, then jumping ahead a year.
The missing teeth, of course, are simple, obvious truths, truths available and comprehensible even to ten-year-olds, in most cases.
The wilful filling off a gear teeth, the wilful doing without certain obvious pieces of information –
That was how a household as contradictory as one composed of Jones, Father Keeley, Vice-Bundesfuehrer Krapptauer, and the Black Fuehrer could exist in relative harmony –
That was how my father-in-law could contain in one mind an indifference toward slave women and love fora a blue vase –
That was how Rudolf Hess, Commandant of Auschwitz, could alternate over the loudspeakers of Auschwitz great music and calls for corpse-carriers –
That was how Nazi Germany sense no important difference between civilization and hydrophobia –
That is the closest I can come to explaining the legions, the nations of lunatics I’ve seen in my time.”

The military attracts only 2 kinds of people, murderers and malingerers. The high ideals you mention is just propaganda BS.

The two oceans are what protect the US from any serious threats of military invasion. The US military is an offensive force and everyone knows it or should know it. To join the military is to approve of its misadventures around the globe for decades.

Those that pretend to join for high brow reasons are the malingerers who will loaf for 20 years to get a pension hoping that they won’t get killed while waiting. Those that get tagged to actually go fight somewhere become the murderers. Those are the only two options

Anarchocapitalist.

Anarchist: someone who believes in anarchy in the strict philosophical sense, i.e. absence of rule or government by physical force or threat thereof.

Capitalist: someone who believes, again in a strict philosophical sesne, in the individual’s right to privately own, accumulate, buy, and sell natural and man-made resources.

Essentially a rigorous libertarian, like some on Lew Rockwell’s website, who wants no coercive government whatsover, who believes that private property is sacrosanct, and who believes that all association between humans should be voluntary – all of which in a society abiding by strict adherence to the Non Agression Principle, which BTW does not necessarily preclude the right to use lethal force in defense of self, family, or property.

This is mostly a White Man thing. I’ve never met a non-White or female AnCap.

It is one thing to criticize, in a civil and objective manner, Trump’s policies and strategies. It’s quite another when Gabbard publicly questions or denounces his character and competence. She is a commisioned field grade officer in U.S. Army ffs and violates the UCMJ when she openly denigrates her commander in chief.

Thanks for putting this on a sexual basis. I reject Freudian psychology for the same reason I reject Marxist economics; they are both jooish psyops against my people. That does not negate their analysis, nor their use of certain basic principles. Of course, it’s sexual. Fukkin boomers like Fred Reed always lose their shit over an attractive mud person. The latest pictures exhibited of her in uniform saluting give a boner, I’m sure, to these losers. “Conservatives” indeed! An additional explanation for this bizarre phenomenon is also why whites just lurve it when a black exhibits conservative ideas. Witness the NRA commercials featuring “a gott-damned muthafukkin BLACK American” a-standin up for gun rights. Somehow, the truth of one’s beliefs is dependent on who believes it. White American men have allowed themselves to be brow-beaten into being afraid of speaking the truth themselves. They have to have muds do it for them.

The only reason why so-called conservatives like Tulsi is because she was a ‘militard’ who once wore a military uniform, saluted the flag when required and did what she was told to do (somewhat).

Tulsi is just trying to parlay her ‘military experience’ into another yet higher government parasite job, and that being POTUS.

Conservatives can’t seem to get it into their heads that donning a military uniform and living a military life is not ‘serving their country’ today… what it really says it that the person cannot function in regular civilian life due to being a retard and that they cannot get a real job.

Especially true even for those who are on the level of officers like Tulsi.
The fact is they are all government parasites.

PARASITES.

Being in the military for the last five decades is actually being an enforcer for the ‘ponzi-dollar’ system that everyone foolishly hops and skips about to, like trained seals. Our military is over sized, over blown and staffed at the highest levels with incompetent three and five star boobs who to get to that level have sold out to the military industrial complex that President Eisenhower warned us about in his farewell address.

But no one listened… because we worship these clowns in uniform.

Case in point: General Mathis who revealed that he is part of the deep state recently.
And everyone in the conservative world was sucking his dick when Trump appointed him.

You watch these recruitment videosof young people entering the military and practically all of them have a minimal education with absolutely no prospects of gainful employment–and once in the military they are mostly institutionalized and receive training that has little or no relevance on the outside world.

I have learned one thing–if anyone wearing a uniform mumbles words in English or any other language, they are lying or disseminating clever propaganda.

Admiral William McRaven is a fine and fitting example of how Austin’s atmosphere causes one’s brain to grow lesions and become irrationally attracted to communist ideals.

A retired Sgt Major friend from my gun club told me back in the 90’s that all the big promotions under the Clintonistas were commieasses and Chekist police state types. The Clintons were seeding the field grade ranks with pinks.

I believe that any contenders for office of the prez are vetted by the powers that be which means that they are not truly for the people.
Soooo, let the show continue with a Trump / Gabbard 2020 ticket.

Everything evil is sourced, bribed, breed, funded, blackmailed, and controlled from and through the international Central Banksters by their legions of flying monkeys.

They can all be traced back and their parasitical infestation historically tracked.

They are so powerful, wealthy, and control so many it is daunting to consider their reach and capabilities. But, fighting the good fight is its own reward.

I believe the world is run by different Game of Throne Crime Families fighting for control of the emerging New World Order. Trump is currently backed by one camp of the Zionists…he had to have allies or he (and his family) were doomed. Barr being appointed AG after hTrump made a truce with little Georgiw W and the Bush Crime family, after Poppy’s death, and Barr was put in to enforce it…that is why the Mueller BS was dropped.

Obviously, as technology continues its relentless explosion once firmly is the hands of the Crime Family that wins the ongoing King of the Mountain shoving contest, technology will be the shackles they use to enslave the world.

It’s not an accident that the Bible talks about 10 Kings in the Last Days and the UN has the world divided into 10 Zones for their Agenda 21 & 30 Globalist Empire they control. The Little Horn will emerge from that nightmare and bring the real shit show.

The problem really is the masses will and are willingly putting the shackles on…look all around today they eat propaganda like candy and beg for more.

.22,

You post well when it comes from you, from your mind and heart, and not from Mathis.

I’m always going to come at everything from a Biblical world view big picture, because that is what I believe, and 100% convinced is the truth.

The Mark of the Beasty Boy is coming and it’s inevitable. The unholy marriage of the technology in the link I provided and the Mark makes perfect sense. No one could really understand Bible End Times prophecy until the technology made it clear how, for a short time and allowed by God, what is written thousands of years ago will come to pass. And, yes, Israel from the blood line of Jesus Christ (not the frigg’in Zionists or the replacement Christians or anyone else) are in the core, the center of God’s plan and still are the apple of His eye.

That said, I am hoping for a delay, a reprieve from the ultimate governor through a revival…no matter how brief the revival or reprieve is…as I know from time in war the horror of what is coming. That hope for revival/reprieve is for my daughter and her family…I’m well into the 4th quarter.

Without teasing you about your constant Mathis links (that you have to realize is boring after the 10th time) let me post a serious and thoughtful criticism of Mathis from 2017 that I believe fits him. By the way, I found him years ago and read many of his essays.

“I ponder MM sometimes trying to find his angle. His arrogance has always been clear, but I enjoy most of his papers, none the less, if simply to receive a different viewpoint. After recently watching a “Questions for Corbett” on Corbettreport.com, I had a realization. Someone had written in essentially questioning Nomi Prins’ work due to her handling of the sinking of the Lusitania within the book All ‘The Presidents’ Bankers’. Corbett was appalled that someone would discount a well-documented tome in its entirety simply because of Prins’ lack of labeling the sinking as a false flag. It made me realize that Mathis does this. He encourages his readers to throw out entire ideas, works of film, art and literature, historical events, etc. simply because someone is related to a Jewish person 10 generations ago. He encourages people not to parse information for the bits and pieces that might be relevant and true but to throw the baby out with the bath water. It’s good to question everything, but he’s sort of like the abusive spouse who wants to gas light and isolate you until he’s the ONLY person you will look to for truth”.

On a related subject that is constant on TBP, let me say this:

NOT ALL JEWS ARE LUCIFERIAN GLOBALIST/ZIONISTS…AND NOT ALL LUCIFERIAN GLOBALIST/ ZIONISTS ARE JEWS…BUT ALL LUCIFERIAN GLOBALIST/ZIONISTS ARE ALL OUR ENEMIES.

This has been discussed many times for several weeks on many alt-media sites but was never openly discussed by Trump in regards to the pullout. Israel wants the oil. Nothing more needs to be known.

Schlicter has a hard-on for her because that is how it worked in the service: Field grade officer wants to fuck company grade officer for benign reasons. That sellout broad has nothing in common with me aside from having worn a uniform. Supports her dad’s platform against gay marriage prior to him becoming a demoncrat from being a rino. She always voted with the majority. She approved an ordinance in Honolulu for property confiscation on public property. Yadda yadda. She panders. Like they all do.

I quibble with the author’s “head cheerleader” analogy. Ms. Gabbard is passably attractive, in an I-wouldn’t-kick-her-out-of-bed sort of way. On the high school spank-o-meter she ranks somewhere between “yearbook club” and “softball team.” Nowhere near “head cheerleader” hotness.

HSF , I was OK with the first 2/3 of your comment. I just gave you a thumbs down because of the jab at her vocabulary. I don’t know what words she’s capable of using, but I don’t fault her for the words she’s chosen to use. Most people use terms like “less people” when they should say “fewer people”. Don’t even get me started on the subjunctive case. Regular folks say “if I was” when it should be “if I were”. I’m pretty sure Trump misspells words on purpose so that his opponents circulate his message while chuckling about his spelling. Because they’re the smart ones. Riiiight. She sticks to her message – no to “regime change wars”. She won’t win the nomination, but neither will Buttgeek. At least she’s made more of a name for herself that Swallowswell guy. Simplistic language works in politics.

I also like her because I think – her public positions notwithstanding – she doesn’t like Islam or homosexual behavior.

“Simplistic language works in politics.”

Agreed.

It wasn’t a jab, it was an observation. She’s extremely polished in her delivery- very articulate, in fact. Clear, concise, great pacing, so you bet it works politically. My point is that her vocabulary usage seems very limited even by Millennial standards which tells me she’s not a reader nor a complex thinker although she acts like one. I consider it a tell, but who knows, I could be mistaken. Maybe everything she says is scripted by someone who isn’t very well read or it is all deliberately dumbed down to appeal to the masses.

Thanks for the response.

She doesn’t like homosexual behavior? Are you sure? That will keep her out of the favored few for sure. It is a requirement as a Democrat that you love that type of perversion and preferably you will promote any and all perversions.

They were already promoting the mainstreaming of homosexuality when Clinton ran the first time. My son was in grade school then and he said Bush was bad for being against homosexuality. I noticed Clinton was promoting the don’t ask, don’t tell policy. By the time Obama came along, we were full-blown queer in the good old USA. The Democrat party keeps expanding, absorbing everybody in its path like the blob of movie fame. It makes me think Lee Greenwood was a recruiting campaign for whites to run to the Republicans.
