    Not one thing he said had anything to do with her gender, race, disability, or veteran status.

    Do you close your eyes when you type? Throw darts at a wall filled with leftists talking points? Surely it's something to that effect because virtually all your posts are unsupported by facts.

    Wait....I just remembered.....November will be here before you know it so it's all agenda all the time. My bad, carry on.

    Whether its the "single most important issue facing this nation or any other" is subjective. I'll bet those protesters and many others consider getting the "racist" Trump out of office to be bigger for instance.

    As for the rest: Because that is part of what concerns his base at this point in time. More than covid.

    Funny thing about his July 4 speech...it didn't once mention protecting statues of confederates. He DID mention other statues. Like George Washington, a founder of this country. Thomas Jefferson, another founder of this country. Frederick Douglas, an Abolutionist who was a part of the Underground Railroad and a few others. None of them Confederates. I wonder what else you were told since you obviously didn't listen/watch the speech he gave.

    Ok. According to you, real courage is standing up for yourself and defending your opinions.

    Hiding behind an anonymous internet name is cowardice. According to you. Do you think it would be fair for someone to accuse you of cowardice based on that?

    She lost her legs in the service of the country she loves. She was accused of hating the country and the loss of her legs is direct evidence that the accusation is false. And cowardly.

    Personally, I think there is a case to be made that trump and his supporters hate America.

    Funny how this same sentiment didn't apply to Democrats when they were attacking Major Tulsi Gabbard. Yeah, she didn't/hasn't lost her legs, but she is still serving our country. Even saying she was a Russian agent. Today's Democrats have selective outrage. Selective outrage that often makes them hypocritical.

    Funny thing is if they had propped Tulsi up Democrats would probably have had a slam dunk case against Trump. She appealed to many on the left and right side of the spectrum. Instead they settled for a man that is literally in a mental decline (which they of course deny). I know many people that voted for Trump that would have voted for Tulsi. Including me. Sure, I didn't agree with her on everything. But she was by far the most sensible candidate out of the entire batch.

    If you want to talk about Gabbard start a separate thread.

    Do you think Duckworth hates America? That she’s a coward?

    Her service to her country says otherwise. So I don’t think it’s ok for Carlson to accuse her of those things.

    Do you?

    I already addressed my thoughts on the OP in another post. No one has yet to respond to it.

    And too bad that you don't like me bringing up Tulsi. If you're going to scream bloody murder about what someone said of Tammy because she served then you had better have done the same when the Democrats attacked Tulsi. Otherwise all you have is faux outrage that no one actually believes is sincere. And I can tell by your attempt at dismissal that you were probably among those that also attacked Tulsi. If I did a search of your posts how much do you think that would be proven?

    Sure. There's always that .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance. Nothing is ever truly 100% for certain.

    Let's just imagine that Tulsi is the VP nominee and Biden gets elected. If I was a betting man I would lay odds that she would be president well within the first year. I can think of worse scenarios.

    I don’t recall anyone calling her a coward or saying she hated America.

    If Biden does get elected and isn't replaced by his VP then he will be the least seen President in our history. I wouldn't put it past some Democrats to keep him in office because his mental decline will make him quite easy to get things rubber stamped.

    She's too close to the center. She's not extreme enough to satisfy the raging mob that is threatening to "tear it all down".

    Nobody is saying she's above criticism. But Tucker saying she hates America because her opinions differ from his is ****ing retarded.

    Asset. Not agent.
    Someone can be a Russian asset without their knowledge. I don’t discount the possibility that the Russians identify politicians and get them to advance Russian interests without those politicians even realizing what they are doing.

    Someone could be a Russian asset and an American patriot at the same time.

    Do you think Duckworth is a coward or she hates America?

    She belongs to the democrat party. The party of slavery and racism. She is a disgrace.

    He was talking about her specifically. Then, without identifying any different group, he said “these people hate America”.
    If he wasn’t grouping her in with “these people”, why was he talking about her?
