I personally don't think Gabbard has ANY plans to disrupt anything and please bring this post to my attention and shove it down my throat if she does run 3rd party. Sure she lines up with Russia on like one or two foreign policy issues putting her at odds with many Dems which has possibly caused Russia to latch onto her and put a few Russian bots out to help her campaign which was going no place until Hillary shined a red hot spotlight on her, but that is as far as it goes. Anything else is everyone imaginations going wild. This goes back to Gabbard being a Maverick with the DNC when she didn't like the good old boy networking going on. Just as they said on ABC, news twitter is filled with this conspiracy stuff but it doesn't line up with the current evidence. Even Malcolm Nance who would know, has said she isn't a Russian asset. Gabbard likes the more left wing part of the party and she will be backing any democratic nominee. As for going on Fox News? Lots of Dems have done that over the years from Wes Clark to Pet. It gets her exposure and raises her profile.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
