Tulsi Gabbard Met With Trump, Says She's Open to Having Discussion About Being VP

Former President Donald Trump has been in conversation with former Congresswoman and 2020 presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI).

The discussions have primarily revolved around matters of foreign policy, with the possibility of serving as Trump's vice-presidential candidate also under consideration.

Per the Washington Post:

Former president Donald Trump and top advisers have spoken with former Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard about foreign policy and how the Defense Department should be run in a second Trump term, according to people familiar with the matter.

Gabbard is a combat veteran and could serve well in Trump's administration. She served on the following committees when she was in Congress: Judiciary, Intelligence, Financial Services, Foreign Affairs, Energy and Commerce, Education and Labor, Transportation and Infrastructure, and Armed Services.

Gabbard told Fox News about her willingness to entertain discussions with Trump about potentially joining his 2024 presidential ticket as a running mate.

She ran for president in 2020 and had issues with the Democrat National Committee throughout her campaign. Unlike Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in 2016, Gabbard made her feelings known and made sure that the voters knew that the DNC tried everything to stop her from debating, as well as Big Tech censoring her.

SNIP>>>>>

There has been talk that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (I) is considering Gabbard as a running mate. She has the experience, is anti-war, and is a moderate Democrat. However, due to the Democrats moving more to the far left, Gabbard is perceived as being outside of the party's mainstream. Those who feel left out of the current Democrat Party and are looking for an alternative could vote for the Trump/Gababrd or RFK Jr./Gabbard ticket, which would result in fewer votes for President Biden.

If RFK Jr is interested in her as a VP that tells you something.

The ultimate end result of Trump/Gabbard would be like Reagan/Bush when Reagan left office and Bush won the Presidency.

Hard to believe this is real. Could be a headfake by Trump to get some sort of media buzz.

I could deal with it; but I’d rather have Kristi Noem, if it’s going to be a female.

Not much to gain by having her as VP, but having her as Secretary of State will make the world a MUCH SAFER PLACE, as she’ll purge the Deep State Warmongers in her first day on the job.

Consider the constituency she served, Hawaii is by far the most liberal state in the country, it was the only way she could get elected there.

I am in the whatever it takes camp. It’s simple, either Trump wins or the country is finished. That said, l am not convinced Tulsi as VP helps make it happen.

She voted "present."

Tulsi Gabbard is only lawmaker to vote 'present' on Trump impeachment

Tulsi Gabbard on Trump impeachment: 'I could not in good conscience vote either yes or no'

She's a real profile in courage.

“Nikki Haley IS one of the Deep State Warmongers !”

Absolutely, but Tulsi is NOT, as she thinks for herself.
