President-elect Donald Trump said during an interview over the weekend that it was ridiculous that people were criticizing former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) over her meeting years ago with then-Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Trump’s remarks during the interview on NBC News’ “Meet The Press” with Kristen Welker were aired on Sunday, just a day after Assad was forced to flee the country as his government collapsed following an aggressive military campaign from terrorist rebels.
“I met with Putin. I met with President Xi of China. I met with Kim Jong-un twice,” Trump said. “Does that mean that I can’t be president?”
“People meet. All these people meet,” he continued. “I mean, I see some of the most dishonest people. I’ll tell you, the 51 agents that said that the laptop wasn’t from Hunter, it was from Russia, what about them? Tell me about them. Do you think they did something wrong? Do you think they were all so stupid that they thought that the laptop from hell?–”

When asked if he had confidence in Gabbard, Trump said: “I do. I mean, she’s a very respected person.”

Trump rips people claiming that former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard’s (D-HI) meeting with then-Syrian President Bashar al-Assad disqualifies her from ODNI.
