    have thrown herself into consideration for secretary of state or defense secretary

    What a moron! Whatever makes her think she would even be considered?

    Within eight years, Gabbard has moved from being an ally for Bernie Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign to a Democratic presidential candidate to a right-wing influencer who has filled in as a host on Tucker Carlson’s former Fox News show,

    That kind of change can sometimes be caused by a tumor or other forms of brain damage. I’m not saying that to scorn her, but it’s a very dramatic change, that could be down to some sort of brain trauma.

    But of course she may also be just an opportunist, in which case she is more likely a sociopath.
    For sure she is not a normal functioning person.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Gabbard, who has reportedly met with the Trump campaign in recent months, was asked on the Wisconsin-based radio show The Regular Joe Show on Thursday whether there was “one thing” she could do that “would be serving the country in the best way possible” if Trump is elected president.

    Within eight years, Gabbard has moved from being an ally for Bernie Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign to a Democratic presidential candidate to a right-wing influencer who has filled in as a host on Tucker Carlson’s former Fox News show, making appearances at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago compound.

    After leaving Congress and the Democratic Party, Gabbard has been a frequent guest on right-wing media platforms and at the Conservative Political Action Conference, sandwiched between speeches from far-right personalities and elected officials.

    Last week, while promoting her book For Love of Country: Leave the Democrat Party Behind, Gabbard told supporters in California that she would be “honored” to be named Trump’s running mate.

    Gabbard, an independent, hasn’t ruled out formally joining the Republican Party.

    “I never say never,” she told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel this week while traveling across Wisconsin to promote her book.
