True. But I think some of them who came from more modest means probably started out pretty smart but suffered the brain rot that comes with nonstop meetings with politicians, lobbyists, and fundraisers, kissing ass, and being absorbed into that culture.
so now that tulsi gabbard is regurgitating populist right wing and libertarian talking points on fox news, i wonder how long bernie will keep her on the board of the sanders institute?
still seems like an odd association with a person who currently is more likely to agree with Ben Shapiro or Tucker Carlson on an issue than Bernie Sanders.
I doubt those published political associations are updated frequently, at least relatively to people transitioning to fringe weirdos. JD Vance was a moderate author talking shit about Trump and Trump voters just 3 years ago and now he’s on the verge of becoming an alt-right Senator, people can change fast. It wasn’t long ago that the worst thing about Tulsi was her rhetoric about Modi and having said 1 homophobic thing when she was a teen(?), not she’s a fucking nut job.
The Trump-era has broken a lot of peoples brains
