She made the remarks at a town hall event on Oct. 16, where she said she is “pretty sure” Biden and Hitler both use good intentions to legitimize authoritarian behavior, according to audio obtained by The Daily Beast. Gabbard told onlookers:Former U.S. House Rep. Tulsi Gabbard compared President Joe Biden to Adolf Hitler at a New Hampshire campaign event this past weekend.

They are led by fanatical ideologues who pose a threat to our democracy because they don’t believe in freedom,” she stated. “They don’t believe in freedom of speech, they don’t believe in freedom of thought, freedom of religion.”Loading...
