U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said there is a "lack of understanding" of President Donald Trump's "America First" policy after being asked about it in India.
It just shows a misunderstanding that for us to have an "America First" president who puts the interests of the American people first, and it is wrong to assume that he is a president who does not understand the importance of relations with other countries and does not seek, if possible, to work on common interests
Gabbard called it a "common mistake" to consider Trump an isolationist.
Nothing could be further from the truth, and this accusation shows a deeper misunderstanding or misassumption that the only way to interact with other countries is through some form of conflict or war
