I'm seriously doubtful a woman who uses the phrase "radical Islamic terrorism" will be able to get much support from the Democrats, no matter how progressive she is.
It actually is radical Islamic terrorism and Democrats would do better if they called a spade a spade while pursuing an isolationist foreign policy.
Gabbard isn't an isolationist, but she doesn't support removing Assad , which would only benefit ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the other jihadists running around Syria. The establishment is mad that she's criticized Obama, Hillary, and now Trump there. It's sad that her Stop Arming Terrorists Act is controversial.
