Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard meets with Trump
Following the meeting, Gabbard said, “We can’t let partisanship destroy our country.”
Click here for reuse options!Hawaii’s Tulsi Gabbard is a combat veteran who backed Bernie Sanders during the primaries and publicly expressed deep skepticism about Hillary Clinton (not to mention the fact that she was a DNC vice-chair until she went rogue and endorsed Sanders). A Daily Beast piece on her back in July bore the headline “Tulsi Gabbard: The Bernie-Endorsing Congresswoman Who Trump Fans Can Love.”
So whether it’s because of certain policy views or that she thinks the Obama administration’s inability to say “radical Islam” is a problem, Gabbard met with Trump as he continues planning its transition.
After the meeting, Gabbard released a statement on her meeting with Trump, saying, “I believe we can disagree, even strongly, but still come together on issues that matter to the American people and affect their daily lives. We cannot allow continued divisiveness to destroy our country.”

Even Bernie hasn’t gone this far in Trump loving.

Just another blue-dog. She should pay attention when someone tells her the KKK endorsed Trump, maybe then she wouldn’t be so callus about throwing ” being divisive” bombs. The democrats should in no way even consider working with Trump on anything until he condemns and disavows the supremacist racists who voted for him.
