Tulsi Gabbard recalls when she was told ‘how dare you meet Donald Trump’ in 2016 – Times of India

WorldTulsi Gabbard recalls when she was told 'how dare you meet Donald Trump' in 2016 - Times of India


Tulsi Gabbard says her former party used to demonize Donald Trump.
Donald Trump aide and former Democrat leader Tulsi Gabbard said Democrats have been dehumanizing Donald Trump for long and she was excoriated when she met Donald Trump in 2016 soon after he was elected the president. Commenting on Fox News about Trump assassination suspect Ryan Routh and how he was not on terror watchlist of the government, Tulsi said it does not make any sense that she is under Dem govt’s terror list but the person who attempted the second assassination in Florida was not.
Last Sunday, Ryan Routh, 58, was arrested after he was found nesting near the boundary of the gold course pointing a gun at the former president. Before he could fire, the Secret Service agents opened fire prompting him to immediately flee the place. Ryan was later nabbed and charged. Ryan had no military background but he was in Ukraine after Russia’s 2022 invasion.
“They put me on a secret domestic terror watch list. How come this guy is not on such a list? I serve in our military. I was a member of Congress for eight years. I was a candidate running for president, and yet the Harris-Biden administration decided to put me on a secret domestic terror list while this guy is able to apparently travel freely without federal air marshals assigned to surveil him and his every move. And that’s really what cuts to the seriousness of what we are facing,” Tulsi said.
“The reality is my former party and the mainstream media have spent years demonizing president Trump. I met with him first in 2016. I was a member of Congress on the foreign affairs and Armed services committees. Two weeks after he was elected, he hadn’t even sworn in, I was invited to speak to him about a new direction of foreign policy, trying to block the neocons, who were jockeying for position at that time,” Tulsi said.
“As soon as I walked out of the Trump Tower in New York City, my phone blew up with outrage and being excoriated by fellow Democrats at that time and here was their foremost complaint: How dare you meet with Donald Trump and humanize him? They have been dehumanizing him for years, turning him into this evil, Hitler-like caricature. So we should not be surprised to see their supporters take that seriously and take it upon themselves to try to take him out,” Ms Gabbard said.
Tulsi Gabbard is eyeing for a top position in foreign policy in a possible Trump administration. Tulsi Gabbard’s endorsement for Trump was a big boost for the Trump Campaign as Ms Gabbard said she believes that Trump would take America back from the brink of war.
