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.

Honesty and integrity is all that matters now, when our current leaders are intentionally dismantling the nation. We need to bring all The Americans we can under one tent in order to win this fight. There are some good Americans who historically voted democrat who see their party has gone off the rails. We need to unite!

H.W. Bush won the office by riding Reagan’s coattails and failed miserably on his own merits.

Tulsi Gabbard is really a much better fit with RFK Jr. than with Donald Trump. While it is nice that some actually pro-American moderate Democrats are still around, they are a vanishing breed, and only the older Democrat voters, that remember politicians like William Proxmire or Henry “Scoop” Jackson, would be attracted to that combination. But every vote denied to the Democrat Socialist/Deep State face of the Uniparty is a plus for America.
