Gabbard no different from the rest

As far as “Gabbard bucking the system,” I love it when WHT publishes funny letters like the one from Holly Bell on April 19. She was right about Brian Schatz and Mazie Hirono — they are totally worthless, true representatives of the Democrats and their handout policies — total bobble-heads.

But, the idea that Holly is “so proud of all the young people who turned out to vote for Sanders.” That “they are very aware of how our government works” is a sick joke at best! Bernie is a total clown, a true Socialist that has no clue how he would pay for all the “free stuff” he wants to hand out. His idea is to bankrupt America — then what?

When Gabbard first ran for office I and many other “right-leaners” thought she would be a different kind of Democrat, one who could think for herself and make informed decisions, not bow to her overlords in the party. While it is good that she isn’t backing Hillary (yet), the idea that Bernie is actually a better choice and she is supporting him is quite sad. She would have shown some genuine spunk if she declined to support either of the Dems! So far her only positive thing is that she supports our veterans.
