The brilliance of the Russiagate conspiracy theory: advocacy for peace is now synonymous with treason & white supremacy.
Who benefits most?
Defense contractors.

The Democrat Party is now the party of imperial war-making.
So I suppose @HillaryClinton accomplished at least one of her major goals.

The military-industrial complex is the most powerful lobbying group in the world, despite the fact that they lobby directly against the interests of everyday Americans.
And now the DNC is owned by Boeing, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, etc.

The financial interests tied up in the defense industry are willing to make any necessary concession on domestic policy to ensure support for their war-making.
In their right hand, they’ll offer Medicare-For-All, free college, abolition of student debt, Green New Deal, whatever will get your attention.
While you’re focused on that, they’ll use their left hand to continually expand their war-making, at whatever cost.

Trump isn’t an anti-war ideologue.
But he’s pro-war ideologue either, so he’s not interested in blowing money pursuing imperialism.
He’s a pragmatist nationalist, and the most powerful lobbying interests in the world can’t stand for that.

The anti-Trump mania is a symptom of the immune system of the defense industry.
Trump won’t just cave to all of their demands like Obama did. They can’t *control* him, even if they can influence him sometimes.
The military-industrial complex needs someone they can control.

Trump has completely co-opted the GOP.
So if the defense industry’s gonna keep itself alive, it’s gonna work through the DNC.
All the anti-Trump hysteria is just astroturfing by the financial interests associated with the defense industry.

Whether they realize it or not, the Democrat POTUS candidates are auditioning for the military-industrial complex.
The test: will you give us the wars we want… or at least stay out of the way?
They’re all passing that test, except for one:
@TulsiGabbard.

Here’s the crux of the matter:
The American people DO NOT SUPPORT THE MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.
If they did, Hillary would be President.
So @TulsiGabbard is gonna stand out among her peers.
That means Tulsi’s gotta go.

As @mtracey has outlined, expect a concerted, plainly coordinated effort to hammer Tulsi with treason, racism, Russia, and whatever other slurs they can manufacture.
A Tulsi-Trump general election would be a NIGHTMARE for the defense industry.

IMMENSE sums will be spent to prevent Tulsi’s nomination.
Why?
On domestic policy, she aligns with all of the Generally Accepted Opinions (MFA, GND, free college, LGBTQ).
She’s a young, charismatic, attractive, military veteran POC with years of experience as an elected official.
But she’s vocally & explicitly anti-imperialism.

Tulsi’s domestic policy appeals to left-wingers.
Tulsi’s foreign policy appeals to right-wingers.
Her domestic policies are an inevitability among Democrats (and probably with Trump too).
What sets her apart is her foreign policy.

Tulsi used her first debate appearance to focus on what sets her apart by establishing her uniqueness on foreign policy.
But that alone won’t win her the nomination.
She needs to prove she isn’t a one-trick pony.

Everyone knows @TulsiGabbard’s foreign policy stance now.
Time for her to broaden her approach.
Emphasize her status as an establishment outsider. Lean into it. Don’t pander. Be sincere. Don’t talk like a politician.
Be a human amongst the NPCs surrounding her on-stage.

Americans HATE the establishment. The establishment HATES Americans.
Tulsi represents Americans more than anyone else on that stage.
When the establishment goes after her, it’ll endear her to the rest of America. So embrace it. Highlight it. Keep hammering it.

When the establishment attacks @TulsiGabbard, they’re attacking Americans.
Americans don’t want war with other countries.
But Americans DO want war with the establishment.

If @TulsiGabbard wants to be commander-in-chief, she needs to prove two things:
1) She won’t fight the wars in other countries
2) She will fight the war in this country
Last night, she proved #1.
Now she needs to prove #2.
/end
