Title: Tulsi Gabbard to Trump: ‘We Are Not Your Prostitutes. You Are Not Our Pimp’

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) launched a profane attack on President Donald Trump’s foreign policy on Monday evening, denouncing the idea of defending Saudi Arabia: “We are not your prostitutes. You are not our pimp.”

Gabbard was responding to President Trump’s statements about a potential U.S. response to a recent attack by Houthi rebels on oilfields in Saudi Arabia that threatened global oil supplies and the security of a key American ally.

In a video released on Twitter, Gabbard declared:

Yesterday President Trump offered to place our military, my brothers and sisters in uniform, under the command [sic] of Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the dictator of the Islamist Kingdom of Saudi Arabia [sic]. Trump said, “[We] are locked and loaded, 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!” Mr. President, as you know, I have never engaged in hateful rhetoric against you [sic], or your family, and I never will, but your offering our military assets to the dictator of Saudi Arabia to use as he sees fit, is a betrayal of my brothers and sisters in uniform who are ready to give our lives for our country, not for the Islamist dictator of Saudi Arabia. For you to think that you can pimp out our proud servicemen and women to the Prince of Saudi Arabia is disgraceful, and it once again shows that you are unfit to serve as our commander in chief. As a member of Congress, and as a soldier, I and all of my brothers and sisters in uniform have taken an oath to protect and defend the American people and the Constitution of the United States of America. There is nothing in our Constitution that gives you the power to go to war without the express consent of Congress [sic], but to speak of giving you the power to offer our military to a foreign power like the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to use as they wish — President Trump, your words and actions are a betrayal of my brothers and sisters in uniform, the American people, and our Constitution. My fellow servicemembers and I — we are not your prostitutes. You are not our pimp.

Truth is not profane.

Good job, Tulsi.

The sky is falling. Gabbard...as ex military person, it seems she never attended the War College.

What Trump SAYS and what he DOES are two different operations.

For instance if Trump said..."Saudi is on their own, whatever Iran does is none of our concern or business".

Gabbard needs stay in shallow end of pool with other intellectual minnows.

We have been in Europe for 70 years to keep Russians at home???? What asinine rhetoric, bring all troops home and the world will live happily ever after.?????

Gabbard is NOT ex-military, she's currently a Major in the Army National Guard and has been deployed to Iraq twice.

She's against regime change wars, which is practically all of them. We are better off saving that money and putting it towards actually BUILDING our military, AND infrastructure.

When you have been at war for 19 years with the same tribes equipped with nothing but light weapons, there's something broken somewhere.

She also serves on the House Armed Forces Committee, so she is a tad bit better informed than you Cyni.

Why do you think it's a great idea we continue to bring death and destruction to Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and that'd it be a great idea to go to war with Russia, China, and Iran?

His butt is on the line as well as the rest of ours if we provoke a nuclear war. But yeah, his knowledge of the world hasn't kept up with things, it's as if the past 68 years never happened.

Who here on 4um is a true history buff? There are a great many things I learned from being an initial subscriber to The Barnes Review. It is a history magazine. And though my illness (bacterial menigitis) has wiped out a bunch of my memory, I am thankful that much of it is returning. ;)
