Was Tulsi Gabbard wise in voting "present" on both articles of impeachment?
Vote
Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii voted "present" on both articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump on Wednesday, later slamming the process as politically motivated. By the way, I hate this new quoting system. Dumb. ... Copied to Clipboard!

dont know who that is, but it seems like the vote wasn't close enough to make any difference, so she pretty much wasted her vote at best

It was neither wise nor unwise. The vote was expected to toe the party lines which is exactly what happened. Despite the ridiculous amount of attention being drawn to her vote, it was a massive non-factor.

I've supported Tulsi for years, since back in 2016 at least. And wanted her to win the nomination this year. But holy fuck has she gone off the rails (of sanity) on the impeachment issue! It's really disturbing, basically a blatant grasp for cred with Republicans, and ironically considering her claims, a clearly politically motivated stunt.

Oh no, she didn't vote with the rest of the Democrats, she's clearly got ulterior motives and it can't be that maybe she just thinks for herself!

She doesn't want to make a decision, that's her prerogative. It's her justification for her non-decision where....after all of the witness testimony, all of the evidence, even the White House's own trascript of the call...and Democrats spending months trying to shy away from doing this....she has the gall to say it's "for partisan reasons." FUCK OFF, Tulsi! Basically there's nothing a president could ever do wrong that would justify impeachment, it is always just a partisan exercise? NO. And the fact that she's currently vying to be president and thinks they can never be held accountable by the checks and balances enshrined in the Constitution is extremely dismaying. ...

I don't think it matters regardless. Gabbard isn't a real contender, considering she's faring about as poorly as Andrew Yang. And the people who are going to be the most upset about how she voted would never have voted for her anyway. The big advantage is that it demonstrates consistency in ideology, though.

When she endorsed Bernie Sanders, they immediately began calling her a Russian shill. Gabbard has every right to be pissed off with the Clinton toadies trying to insinuate that she's a treasonous plant just because she didn't endorse their queen, and every right to fire back when they shot first. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/3609 And this is coming from someone who does not particularly like Gabbard. Edit: Let's be clear, the reason why this vote of hers is stupid is this: I think the guy is guilty but wont say it because I didnt like the way the prosecutor and the defence argued all the time. The argument is absurd. It's clear that the only reason that she did this is because she's in desperate need of press coverage at this point. --- Hi ... Copied to Clipboard!

AFAIK the Democrats weren't able to produce any evidence of a QPQ. Isn't it also true that none of the so-called witnesses were actually there to witness the phonecall? As far as I'm concerned their testimonies are as valuable as your's or mine's. Seems completely fair for her to say it's for partisan reasons if that's the case. ... Copied to Clipboard!
