![]() ![]() ![]() The New York Times that often reflects the views of the Democratic Party establishment, last week published an attack on Gabbard trying to link her to “white nationalists and Russians” and the right. She literally just got back from serving our country abroad.” In the middle of her campaign, she was called for active duty and deployed for two weeks in Indonesia in August.Īndre Yang, another candidate for the Democratic Party nomination to run against Trump, defended her, tweeting: “Tulsi Gabbard deserves much more respect and thanks than this. Gabbard is a serving major in the Army National Guard that is similar to the Territorial Army. She added in a tweet that Clinton has “finally come out from behind the curtain” manipulating the campaign against her through her “powerful allies in the corporate media and war machine, afraid of the threat I pose”.Ĭlinton, who had lost to President Donald Trump, had taken aim at Gabbard and alleged in a podcast by a campaign manager for former President Barack Obama that she was “a favourite of the Russians” and they were grooming her to be a third party candidate in next year’s election.Ĭlinton and her party have blamed the Russians for her loss rather than their own missteps and their condescension to an important segment of voters she dismissed as “despicables”.Īlthough partly a Samoan - a non-white minority - and not of Indian descent, Gabbard is a practicing Hindu. Reacting to attacks by former presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, Gabbard on Friday called her “the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so long”.Ī US military combat veteran, who has seen war first hand, Gabbard has opposed US military involvement abroad and has called for bringing troops back home and has been criticised by some in her own party for her stand. Tulsi Gabbard, the first Hindu to seek the presidential nomination of a major party, has lashed out against a smear campaign by her Democratic Party’s leaders and their supportive media. ![]()
