#TulsiGabbard
Tulsi Gabbard’s 2020 campaign sparked controversy and Hillary Clinton feud.
Origin & Impact
Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard’s 2020 campaign positioned her as an anti-war veteran challenging the establishment. In October 2019, Hillary Clinton suggested without naming her that a Democratic candidate was being “groomed” by Russians, widely interpreted as referring to Gabbard. Tulsi fired back calling Hillary the “queen of warmongers.”
The hashtag documented the feud, debates about Gabbard’s foreign policy positions, and questions about her Democratic credentials. Her appearances on Fox News, defense of Assad, and attacks on Democratic frontrunners made her a polarizing figure who eventually left the party, confirming critics’ suspicions.
