Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), who is running for the Democratic party's 2020 presidential nomination, told podcast host Dave Rubin Sunday that she supports restrictions on third-trimester abortions, making her the first and only Democrat in the field to oppose the barbaric practice.
Gabbard, National Review reports, told Rubin that she has a somewhat libertarian view of abortion rights — she supports a woman's "right to choose" but only until the baby is considered viable.
