Ex-Democrat Tulsi Gabbard endorses Trump at National Guard event | 26 Aug 2024 | Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard endorsed former President Donald Trump on Monday at an event for the National Guard Association in the battleground state of Michigan. The support from Gabbard, a former Democrat who ran for president against Kamala Harris in 2020 and served in the Army National Guard, came as the two marked the three-year anniversary of the airport bombing in Kabul, Afghanistan, that left 13 U.S. service members dead. "This administration has us facing multiple wars on multiple fronts and regions around the world and closer to the brink of nuclear war than we ever have been before," Gabbard said. "This is one of the main reasons why I'm 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."
