Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), running for the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination, says she opposes open borders and plans pushed by fellow Democrat candidates that are essentially open borders.
During an interview with Dave Rubin, Gabbard said that unlike some of her Democrat colleagues, she opposes open borders and the agenda to invite the worlds migrants to the United States through various incentives.
The interview went as follows:
RUBIN: So immigration, I think theres a general sense that the candidates, the Democrats are basically trying to outdo each other for open borders, something like that do you think thats a fair way to start the question and where do you sit on that?
GABBARD: I think its fair I dont, I dont support open borders. Without secure borders, we dont really have a country. And while some of the other Democratic candidates will say, Well, open borders, thats a conservative argument and thats not really whats being advocated for, if you look at some of the practical implications of some of the things they are pushing for, it is essentially open borders.
I think there are a few things we got to do when were talking about immigration reform. One is weve got to have secure borders. This is not Trumps wall from sea to shining sea. Its about seeing again what makes sense. I look at things from a practical, objective-oriented standpoint; Im a soldier. So I look at, secure the borders, whats our objective. In some places, it may make the most sense to have a wall or some kind of other physical barriers in place; in other places it wont make sense. So you use technology and you use all the other tools that you have ultimately to accomplish that objective of security at the borders.

“ Without Secure Borders, We Dont Have a Country “
Where have I heard that before?
I don't think she is allowed in the debates anymore, so no one will see her.
I don't think she is allowed in the debates anymore, so no one will see her.
Didn’t she raise her hand with the rest of the Dem candidates when asked whether they would support free healthcare for illegals?
Trust her 10000000 times more than that uniparty Romney person and fake, Nikki Haley.
Could we trade Romney for her? At least she doesnt have that Romney slick car salesmen demeanor.
Why in the world is she a DEMOCRAT??
She’s just acting the moderate. Her only chance.
she is the ONLY one who could pull it off, and the Dems want nothing to do with her....... we have Rinos who are left of her
I dunno. She is flip floppy on this...and she refers to POTUS as promoting racial hostility and interventionist wars?
“I Dont Support Open Borders Without Secure Borders, We Dont Have a Country”
She doesn’t belong in the Democrat Party, then.
She’s a dirty f’ing commie on every other position. Don’t give her any credit...
Somebody get her a red pill and MAGA hat to go with that jacket!
This is true!
Typical freak, attempting to save face when faced with a reflection.
Thanks KC_Lion. IF she keeps talking like that, pretty soon she'll be the one making the decisions about who gets invited to debates. ;^)
Something is wrong with her.
She must know she is behind enemy lines...
She’s hot... she must be a conservative at heart!
Because Hawaii doesnt elect Republicans. Period.
NO. It is that she is falling behind and hopes someone moderate will say, “She may not be so bad after all.”
Don’t be misled.
