Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard accused President Trump of governing as if the United States is "Saudi Arabia's b****" over his response to an attack in the Middle East.
On Saturday, there were coordinated strikes against key Saudi Arabian oil facilities and those attacks disrupted 5% of the daily global supply. Yemeni Houthi rebels accepted responsibility for the attack, according to CNN. The rebels have ties to Iran. (tweet) In response to the attack, Trump tweeted that the United States has "reason to believe that we know" who perpetrated the attack, while adding that the government is "locked and loaded depending on verification."
“Trump awaits instructions from his Saudi masters,”

Sounds like she wants to be a 'Beta" female.
How can a pacifist be a Major in our military. I guess that's why Tucker Carlson is so interested in her.

Why can't they get a thesaurus? This is how 9th grade boys talk in the locker room when they're trying to impress the 10th graders.

The reality is that Saudi Arabia is a major source of petrochemicals for Western Europe and any threat to their supply will cripple Europe. Like it or not, we really don't want Iran to control Saudi's oil. Yes, the Saudis should have better defense, but they don't. Probably a pragmatic decision on their part because they know that the Christian west will jump to their defense to keep the oil flowing. If that makes us their B****, that's the way it goes. In a perfect world, it wouldn't be so, but the world isn't perfect.

Dear Ms Gabbard,
I happen to agree that the US has been the Saudi's beeahch for quite some time. When 19 Saudi's attached us on 911 we turned ourselves into pretzels to avoid concluding Saudis Arabia had anything to do with it. As a side note all 19 were professing and connected to radical Islam and we also managed to convince ourselves Islam was not a problem.
I implore you to reflect on why and what policies are connected to the why. Then you tell me who's policies those were and tell me who has been making corrections to reverse those policies.
Because Trump has not been able to undo all of the Saudi oil dependency in three years it does not make him responsible for the disastrous policies of Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush..... And who has been for drilling our way out of our Saudi puppet master control and who has been reinforcing the strings?
If you really believe that we are and should not be under Saudi influence, you are sitting on the wrong side of the aisle.

I believe that she should resign her commission. She is in violation of her oath.

Like #3, I am disappointed but not surprised by her profane response. She has backpedaled before but this is beyond the pale. She has served as an enlisted over there and is now an Army MP Major, but that doesn’t mean she understands greater national security issues. She seems to be stuck on the anti war Syria thing and thinks it applies to all situations. She has just proven she does belong on the dem debate roster along with the other loony bins.

This is an interesting comment from Gabbard, coming as it is from Assad’s beech.

Let's be very clear. She said "bitch." The people who want to monitor our speech, Beto, Tulsi and all the rest, have decided that dirty language will get them elected. Hope they are wrong.

She's hard to figure out. In the past she has jabbed both Crazy Mazie and Harridan Harris. But then she has an assortment of odd political positions that don't quite add up. Too bad - she has a very interesting look to her.

So this is what desperation looks like. I always wondered.// I guess getting frozen out by the DNC for thinking on her own, and knocking the at the time favorite off her game is leaving Tulsi desperate for attention. She will take it in any form possible. She may have just revealed herself as a democrat after all.

Unfortunately, every President for the last 50 years has been Saudi Arabia's b****. I keep waiting for one President to tell the Saudis where they can stick their oil. I don't expect that to happen in my lifetime.

Back in the early 60's, while in the USAF, I was told by my superiors more than once, that saying anything derogatory about my Commander-in- Chief was a court martial offense. Has that rule changed and if so, when did it change? I'm guessing it was still in effect during the Kenyans reign.

I was initially impressed with Gabbard and even thought that it was a shame that she wasn't a Republican. She seemed so measured, logical and well-spoken.
Well! So much for that! How crude and insulting that she would attack our Great President with such disgusting words. Now, I believe that she has been milking her military career and I hope that her political career is One and Done.

She was the only "candidate" on the left for whom
I still had a teeny bit of respect. Now, she joins the rest of the leftist gas-bags.

O.K. you little 37 year old twerp. What would you do in this case? You would wait for the hacks in the Dem power structure hiding behind the curtains to tell you that you should serve milk and cookies to the Iranians. God forbid that you take a tough stance. How can anybody entrust the USA to any of these losers, those under forty and those older. If that ever happens, there has to be a revolution.
