The punditry is yammering on about how her lawsuit against Hilary Clinton can't be won when that is not the point.
Tulsi's goal is the document discovery that will come along with the trial.
When you file a lawsuit, you get a chance to ask for copies of any records, bank statements, writings, phone calls, emails or anything else to make your case. The same applies if you are being sued.
By filing a lawsuit, Tulsi Gabbard is giving herself the power to review Hilary Clinton's life. That is her endgame. She probably already has a target in mind. And I'll bet she will never agree to settle.
Hilary Clinton is playing a 90s game. She really thought that Tulsi Gabbard would just outrage and then simmer down after a while. Nope. Lee Atwater did this kind of garbage in the 80s. It is not a new play.
What Hilary Clinton doesn't understand is the Information Age. She is no longer doing battle with one person while supported by her media friends. Everyone on Earth can weigh into the discussion now. Her message cannot be predictably chewed into cud by the predictable writers of the major media outlets. She has to answer to more people now. There is no more control of the medium, by anyone. Clinton's reporter pals can't steer the message anymore. She doesn't see the new reality.
So now Tulsi Gabbard is going to tear Clinton apart slowly over the next few years. Drip by drip, Clinton's relevance will disappear. And she can't even see it.
