For Debate Against Kamala Harris, Donald Trump Picks This Hindu American

Gearing up for his debate with US Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump, and has brought in the former Democratic Congresswoman and Hindu-American leader Tulsi Gabbard to help sharpen his attacks, the New York Times reported citing two people aware of Trump's schedule.

She joined Trump's practice session at the latter's private club and home, Mar-a-Lago.

Trump and Harris, an Indian-origin leader, are set to face off in the ABC News debate on September 10.

Gabbard, who left the Democratic Party after her 2020 presidential run and has rebranded herself as a celebrity among Trump's base of support, has long been friendly with Trump and was also speculated to be his running mate for some time.
