I got a feeling about this.  Like they had a serious discussion about something.

Pump the brakes.  Look at her voting record in congress.  Look at what she said about Trump before and during his presidency.
She is a progressive and can't yet be trusted until she proves her conversion and loyalty because we've seen what people who suck up to Trump will do.

And I still think she's anti 2A.

No one is perfect. 2nd amendment absolutists are rare.  Trump himself has been for some gun control.  Tulsi has shifted to the right over time and it’s been gradual, which inclines me to believe it’s sincere, not just a lie made up to try to fool us.

Here are some reasons I think that:

She has come to see the federal government as an out of control tyranny, (duh!) and the DC bubble completely disconnected from the people, and hence has begun to understand the eventual possible need for the people to be armed enough to check a tyrannical government.  She has verbally expressed this, that gun rights are not simply for individual self defense.

Back in her younger days, isolated on that little island off in the Pacific, she was pretty focused on local environmental issues, hence a Democrat, and like many young people drawn toward liberalism.  But with time and refocusing on broader issues, she has moved away from progressivism, again, like many of us, as we get older and wiser. I believe we might give her the benefit of doubt.

Ability to avoid WW3 might be a priority in picking the VP. She is against the U.S. interfering in conflicts overseas, while being for defending us against attack at home.  She is also against the far left woke takeover.  She is FOR paper ballots and election security.

So while we must be wary and watch her on the 2nd Amendment issue, there is a good chance she is experiencing genuine growth, which if true is a good sign, a sign of open mindedness, intelligence, willingness to admit when she is wrong, and so forth.

You have to listen to her extensively and then get a gut feel for if she is sincere in her change of heart. So far I tend to think she is.  But I’ll be watching her carefully while remaining “guardedly optimistic”.
