Well Harris would love a Russia style police state so it has to be her.

If it's Tulsi, isn't she just as likely to take votes off Trump as whomever wins the Democratic nomination? Her positions almost all fall to the right.

In general I like Unleashed Hillary. But, if she's right, this is not the kind of accusation to throw out there so candidly. Hell, if she's wrong it's doubly so. This feels borderline irresponsible.

Well according to CNN, Tulsi had a great debate and is coming into her own.

It may or may not be true, and you can probably fault her for saying it, but you can't blame her for believing it.

Makes sense. They know democrats tend to eat their own so im sure the Russians are hoping to get another Nader situation to make up for the votes Trump will lose. Tusli is the best patsy for the job - her stance on the impeachment inquiry and military background play well with independents (aka Trump/Repbluican leaning voters)

Yea been seeing a lot of tweets about Tulsi being pushed aside by the NYT and other garbage, so it's almost certainly her.

Obviously referring to Tulsi. She's the only one beating the drum about the DNC continuing to "rig" the primaries.

I don't think Tulsi is that nefarious an actor, though, and not very popular to boot.

Nah. Trumpers going to vote for Trump. Only wishy washy people will go third party. Her stance against "regime change wars" is enough to sway some lefties.

Almost certainly. Trump's not a won't-this-be-funny candidate anymore, he's completely lost any ironic appeal to the middle, and there are absolutely still Republicans out there who would love to have the option of a protest vote.

Tulsi's a good-looking Republican-lite with a military background. That's catnip for the rural white guy who's kind of embarrassed by Trump but will never vote for Warren.

Could it be the one who is a Fox News regular, advertises on Breitbart, and agrees almost always with Republican talking points?

Hmmm. Curious.

She is by all accounts a very smart person, and its clear that she wants Trump out at any cost, so I have no reason to doubt her here.

I love that she's so blatant about it. Doesn't even try to hide that she's talking about Tulsi.

Tulsi just sucks because she sucks, she's not being ~groomed by Russia~. This is dumb.

Yeah, it's Tulsi. The only other person who might consider a third party run is Bernie, since he is technically not a Democrat anyway. But he didn't run in 2016 third party, and I highly doubt he will in 2020. He doesn't want to be seen as the spoiler.

For the Russians end goal they would like to have that candidate there to give the illusion that votes were siphoned off. That's all that matters.
