Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) ripped President Trump for approving an airstrike against Irans top general, calling the attack "an act of war."
Make no mistake: Trumps actions are an act of war, Gabbard, a presidential candidate, said in an email to supporters. Taken without any authorization or declaration of war from Congress, seriously escalating this tit for tat conflict, pushing us deeper into an endless quagmire and dangerously undermining our national security.
Gabbard, an Iraq War veteran, has hinged much of her White House bid on ending Americas military involvements abroad and withdrawing troops from the Middle East.
We need to get out of Iraq and Syria now. That is the only way that we're going to prevent ourselves from being dragged into this quagmire, deeper and deeper into a war with Iran, the Hawaii Democrat tweeted Friday.

I said we liked her. I never said wed vote for her. Still wont.
“I bet her fanclub here is heartbroken.”
Not me gator. She’s a lowly congress critter out of Hawaii, a Berniebot and pure opportunist.
Because she doesn’t take crazy commie anti-American with every breath people acted like she’s something great.
She ain’t.
Time for her to go on Tucker’s show and watch him drool with his big puppy dog eyes again.
Shell never be President, thank God.
So if 0bama did the same thing in Benghazi would she have said the same thing?
“We need to get out of Iraq and Syria now.”
........
She is supposed to bark at Obama.
“Gabbard is correct that what Trump did was an act of war.”
Yes, it’s an act of war involving a uniformed FOREIGN combatant on the battlefield.
As Alan Dershowitz pointed out, it’s 100% legal.
Tulsi Gabbard surfs in frigid New Hampshire waters to ring in new year
Shes attractive but thats about it.
So was killing our troops.
That’s nice. Here’s a hanky.
She’s got a nice body, but a skull full of mush.
She agrees with Rand Paul that we need a declaration of war to respond to an attack on our embassy.
No, we don’t. When we march on Tehran, we’ll need a DoW. To send a message telling them to back off of our embassy, the president has all the authority he needs.
Tulsi thinks she is the one and only expert regarding the Middle East. Her arrogance and condescending attitude on this subject are tiresome.
Other than taking out Skanka Harris, she has no redeeming qualities or accomplishments.
GFY Tulsi.
Shows her true colors!
“Democrats didnt seem to have a problem with Obama bombing the snot out of Libya, or trying to overthrow Egypt, or perpetuating a civil war in Syria. All without approval from Congress.”
If Trump was for happiness, Democrats would be for sorrow.
Wait...
Wait, isn’t she in the National Guard? How the hell does she get away with saying this about her commander in chief?
I keep hearing this was an act of war against Iran. When did we attack Iran?
If we had a Special Forces General in Iran training troops and coordinating attacks, I would expect Iran to try to kill them. And it would not be an act of war. (Our guy being there could be considered one though.)
I certainly would be upset, but the Red flag of doom would not be flying.
She probably gained some supporters with her comments, from Iran, Russia, China, Syria, Lebanon...
