“Frankly, to put it simply, the choice of the American people is a choice between Donald Trump — a man who values peace, prosperity and freedom, and he has a record to prove it — and Vice President Kamala Harris, whose record shows an increasingly tyrannical government that is undermining our freedoms,” Gabbard told FOX Business guest host David Asman.

Gabbard, an Iraq War veteran, highlighted Trump’s foreign policy during his administration and the steps he took to keep service members safe.
“It is important to me and to every one of my brothers and sisters in uniform that we have a commander in chief who values each of our lives, who takes this responsibility as commander in chief very seriously and who will therefore exhaust all diplomatic avenues before considering war as a true last resort,” she said.

“President Trump has shown in his last administration that he has not only started new wars, but he has taken steps to prevent them by courageously meeting with his adversaries, his allies, his partners, his dictators. He would meet with anyone he needed to in order to pursue peace. Kamala Harris has criticized Donald Trump for doing exactly that, which shows that if elected president, she will not do what is necessary to pursue peace.”
