Former Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard endorsed Donald Trump on Monday at the National Guard Association convention in Detroit.
The former congresswoman from Hawaii left the Democratic Party in 2022.
Gabbard recounted that she first deployed to Iraq in 2005 with the Hawaii National Guard as part of a medical unit.
Gabbard told those assembled that she had accompanied Trump to a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery earlier in the day to honor those 13 service members killed by a suicide bomb attack at Abbey Gate in Kabul, Afghanistan, three years ago.
“We saw that in his first term of the presidency when he not only didn’t start any new wars, he took action to deescalate and prevent wars,” Gabbard continued.
The former lawmaker had some stand-out moments against Harris when the two shared the Democratic presidential primary debate stage during the 2020 election cycle.
She stated that Trump sees war as a “last resort.” Gabbard then targeted Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, saying, “This administration has us facing multiple wars, on multiple fronts in regions around the world and closer to the brink of nuclear war than we ever had been before.” “This is one of the main reasons why I am committed to doing all that I can to send President Trump back to the White House where he can once again serve us as our commander in chief,” she said, drawing cheers and applause from the crowd.
