Democrat Tulsi Gabbard Defends 'Frank and Positive' Trump Meeting
Nov. 21, 2016, 6:24 PM CST / Updated Nov. 21, 2016, 6:24 PM CST

On its face, Mondays summit at Trump Towers between President-elect Donald Trump and Hawaii Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard makes little sense.
Hawaii was Donald Trumps single worst state (he got only 29 percent of the vote) and its by far the countrys most racially diverse, with whites making up about only one-quarter of the population.
But in a statement after the meeting, Gabbard, who has often challenged President Barack Obama on national security, said she held a "frank and positive" conversation with the President-elect, discussing Syria and other foreign policy issues.
Gabbard, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, also said she and Trump discussed legislation that she is pushing that would end what she described as "our country's illegal war to overthrow the Syrian government."......................................
