Tulsi Gabbard Tells Clay And Buck She Would Consider Being Donald Trump's VP: 'Of Course'

Former Congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard made an appearance on The Clay & Buck Show Friday where she addressed rumors that presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump could select her as his running mate.

Gabbard joined the show hosted by OutKick founder Clay Travis and Buck Sexton to promote her new book For Love of Country: Why I Left the Democratic Party.

Before getting into the focus of her book — her decision to leave the Democratic Party after running for the party's nomination in the 2020 presidential election — Gabbard addressed whether she would accept the opportunity to run as Trump's VP.

"Would you consider that Tulsi?" Sexton asked about the prospect of hopping on a Republican ticket with the former president.

"I would," Gabbard said. "Thanks for sharing that with me, by the way — I wasn't aware — but of course I would.

"My interest and goal has always been trying to find the best place that I can serve our country and make a positive impact," she continued. "We have so many challenges that we're facing right now. This election is absolutely critical."

Gabbard also talked about the possibility of the Democrats pulling the ol' switcheroo and pulling President Biden from the upcoming election. However, she noted that the problems with the Democratic Party go well beyond Biden.

"Someone asked me last night at CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference), 'What do you think they're going to replace Joe Biden?' I said, 'I don't know. Maybe they will,'" Gabbard said. 

"But what difference will that really make whether it's Joe Biden or Kamala Harris or whoever else they may put forward? They all stand for the same policies that are destroying our democracy and undermining our freedom," she continued. "Undermining the rule of law, doing everything they possibly can simply to hold on to power and  that's a threat to us all."
