Tulsi Gabbard slams Trump for putting Saudi Arabia's interests over America












Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has slammed President Trump for threatening military action against Iran in response to the attacks on Saudi Arabia.






“Trump awaits instructions from his Saudi masters,” Gabbard tweeted.


“Having our country act as Saudi Arabia’s bitch is not ‘America First.”





Mediaite.com reports: Gabbard’s tweet came in response to Trump saying that the U.S. is “locked and loaded” to respond to the attack against the Saudis.


“Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked,” Trump wrote. “There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!”










Gabbard has faced her own criticisms on Middle East policy. In particular, she’s come under fire for meeting with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad in 2017.


The Hawaii representative has been mired at roughly one percent in the Democratic race. She failed to qualify for the third Democratic debate and is currently on the outside looking in for the next debate in October.
