The alignment with WEF is troublesome to say the least, although In trying to be neutral, just because someone is part of an organization doesn’t mean they agree with every aspect. Tulsi Gabbert was among WEF young leaders and she’s done quite a turnaround.

Tulsi has done an amazing economic turn-around for her own career. There's no possible way you can reach your mid 40s or 50s as an unreconstructed socialist, including endorsing Bernie Sanders in 2020, and have any sort of principles. She is outraged by convenience, and her new paymaster has her saying what she needs to say. Do not trust Tulsi any farther than you can throw her. You don't get to do the devil's work for decades, not apologize, not explain your supposed change of heart, and then reap the benefits of a "new position".
John Newton the slaver --> John Newton the hymn writer?
No hope for older people at all to be able to see where they were previously blind?
I disagree.
I'm not advocating for a position about Tulsi, just disagreeing with ruling out such a change because of age only. I do realize that she isn't suddenly Christian, but I think the principle holds.
Well, if you do make that radical a change that suddenly and that late in adulthood, it should look a lot more like "Witness" by Whittaker Chambers. Please consider reading.
Glad you acknowledge that people can learn and change their minds. My father was an FBI Special Agent whose task in WWII was to track down Soviet agents, whether Soviet or American, in Washington, DC, so I'm good on understanding Chambers.
So you don’t think humans can change position over the course of a lifetime? Nonsense! I campaigned for Obama in 2008 and here i am now.
Past actions don’t necessarily paint a complete picture of a person’s character.
People do change and evolve, and an apology isn’t always required.
Tulsi was a convenient example, but some of the rigid attitudes here can be very off-putting to those of us who largely align but may not be uber religious lifelong conservatives. How is that any different from the all-or-nothing left wing whackadoos?
For a primer on loving repentance and sacrifice, see: "Witness", by the redoubtable Whittaker Chambers.
PS: Thou protest too much.
I have been wrong about many things, and I do endeavor to repent and apologize. I probably fail sometimes. About the fundamentals of politics and human nature...well, Childers is a great proxy for my conclusions.

She endorsed a Marxist in 2020.

She was always awake about our evil foreign policy and its lies.
