Tulsi Gabbard says she would be 'honored' to join a potential Trump administration
Fox News
Former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard told Fox News Digital on Monday that she would "be honored to serve" in the Trump administration focusing on foreign policy and national security.
"I feel I can make the most impact in these areas of national security and foreign policy, and work to bring about the changes that President Trump talks about," Gabbard said Monday evening from a campaign fundraising event in Atlanta, Georgia. Gabbard added that bringing an end "to the influence of the military industrial complex," working to prevent World War III and bringing the U.S. back "from the brink of nuclear war" would be among her priorities. War should be a "last resort," Gabbard said. She has also supported former President Trump's plans to end the war in Ukraine.
Gabbard spent time as the vice chair of the Democratic National Committee between 2013 and 2016, and previously supported candidates like Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt, and President Biden. However, blaming a shift within her former party that she has not agreed with, Gabbard became increasingly friendly with the GOP before leaving the party and eventually joining Trump's transition team last month.
