Former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard weighed in on CNN’s joint interview with Democrat nominee Kamala Harris and running mate Gov. Tim Walz, saying Harris came across as “weak” and “afraid.”
Gabbard, now a member of Trump’s transition team who’s been helping the former president prepare for his debate against Harris on Sept. 10, was asked Friday by Fox News host Peter Hegseth her reaction to Harris’s interview.
“Well, first of all, I think let’s just take a step back and look at the lead-up to this massively hyped-up interview,” Gabbard replied. “They’ve been hyping this up now for over a month. She’s going to do a big interview before the end of the month, and so everyone was watching. We’re looking — OK, what is this big interview going to be? Finally, Kamala Harris, after 39 days, Queen Kamala descends from her tower to come and talk to the little people. And then what we saw made very clear what they’ve been trying to hide.”
Harris’ CNN interview exposed her as insecure and weak, which of course is exactly the qualities that will make her the perfect puppet controlled by the faceless, power-hungry warmongers who run our country right now.

“She came across as very weak, insecure, clearly out of depth on any kind of issues, and not even knowing where she stands on different issues, or, frankly, what her plans are, and she came across as someone who’s afraid,” she continued.
“And what she’s afraid of is that we, the people, will see what she’s trying to hide, and that there will be this moment that the American people will be like that child that has the courage to say, ‘hey guys, the emperor has got no clothes on.’ And that’s her. That’s her right now, and that’s what came across and I think has been made very clear.”
“It will be interesting to see now whether they stick with this strategy of trying to hide her, or whether the American people are going to continue to see who Kamala Harris really is,” Gabbard added.
Gabbard, who left the Democrat Party in 2022, endorsed Trump on Monday, citing his commitment to end the “forever wars” and curtail the military-industrial complex’s influence on U.S. foreign policy.
Trump tapped Gabbard to help him with his debate prep against Harris since she handily trounced Kamala during a 2020 primary debate that effectively ended her candidacy.
Now that Tulsi Gabbard has officially endorsed President Trump.
