Will Trump offer Tulsi Gabbard a top administration post?

November 22, 2016 00:32

US President-elect Donald Trump met with Tulsi Gabbard, stoking speculation that the prominent Bernie Sanders ally could join Trumps administration.

Trumps transition team has said he is meeting with candidates for administration positions as well as people who can provide ideas and counsel. Gabbard, who voted for Clinton on November 8 after serving as a key surrogate for Sanders, shares some positions with Trump, including opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

A spokesman for Trump declined to say whether Gabbard is under consideration for a position. She obviously has a very distinguished track record. But it would be a little premature to start putting out specific potential administration positions, said Jason Miller.
