Tulsi Gabbard: Biden Absence on 9/11 Memorial ‘Insulting Beyond Words’
Breitbart ^ | 09/12/2023 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 09/12/2023 7:39:15 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Monday on FNC’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), now a Fox News contributor, criticized President Joe Biden for his absence at a memorial commemorating the loss of life because of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

“White House is saying that you know, presidents don’t show up to Hawaii on Pearl Harbor after all of these years,” host Jesse Watters said. “What’s the point?”

“It’s insulting beyond words. It was even more insulting — that was even more insulting,” Gabbard responded. “It was also insulting to hear in the speech that he delivered during that fuel stop in Alaska, him lecturing the American people about how it is our responsibility that we must take seriously to defend democracy. And he is saying these words, lecturing us as he and his administration, every step of the way, are undermining our own democracy both by his politicizing the Department of Justice to go after Donald Trump, his major political opponent in this upcoming presidential election. He is going after and changing the rules of the DNC to make it so people who vote for RFK, Jr., their votes won’t actually count

I disagree with her. He can only mess things up by being there.

Better to leave any ceremony to those who care about it.

Personally, I don’t really feel it makes a difference if Biden shows up or does not show up physically. He would not be there in spirit anyway.

I’m with you there, Tulsi, but he reads the words without knowing what they really mean. He is that much of a wind up robot now.

“He would not be there in spirit anyway.”

He’d be checking his watch every five minutes.

Nor would he be there in mind.

And love how Brandon told the folks in Alaska that he was at ‘ground zero’ the next day. I’m only surprised that he didn’t tell how he was pulling folks out from under the rubble. Meanwhile, he was closing down thousands of acres to oil and natural gas drilling in Alaska, not a word about that did he say.

I’m glad Biden was in Alaska pooping his pants. He’s not even a true freedom loving American, showing up at a sacred event would only diminish it.

But I was so looking forward to him likening his house fire, how he nearly lost his Corvette, and his poor kitty that died to the burning towers. It would have been a real sorrowful and emotional retelling.

So tell me which is more insulting,

1. Joey shows up tells numerous LIES how he and his son Beau were there carrying bodies out of the towers, and staring into the gates of hell.

2. He avoids the entire day except for some scripted unnecessary layover in Alaska TOTALLY disrespecting the memory of that day.

3. Stay an extra day or two in Vietnam and tell them about dog faced pony soldiers and the song “Good Morning Vietnam.”

Seems like a 3-WAY TIE to me. FJB!!!

I agree. Didn’t he pull his stinky mask down and shout some weird stuff at the memorial ceremony at Ground Zero a year or two ago?
