No different than Trump with Putin: Howard Dean says Tulsi Gabbard should resign for defending Assad
I think its outrageous, a terse Dean responded. Theres a long well-known history, both in our intelligence community, Amnesty International and Doctors Without Borders. Every single one of these agencies has said that Assad is using chemical weapons. Hes a barbarian, hes murdered half a million of his own people.
I cant imagine how you could make a statement like that, especially being on the Foreign Relations Committee, he continued. I cant imagine what could possibly be going through her head.
To that end, you put a tweet out, Im going to read it to everybody, okay? Witt responded before quoting Dean on Twitter writing, This is a disgrace. Gabbard should not be in Congress, along with a link to Gabbards comments.
All shes asking for is proof though, Witt pressed.
If youre on the Foreign Relations Committee and you havent seen the proof in the last five and a half years, theres something the matter with you, Dean shot back. I am tired of people making excuses. This is no different than Trump making excuses for Putin. Weve had enough of this.
