Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA ) would be “extremely honored ” to be President Donald Trump’s vice presidential pick, she said this weekend.
Ernst was interviewed on the Breitbart News Memorial Day Weekend specific on SiriusXM Patriot 125. She offered a gift, as a U. S. Army veteran, to those American servicemen and servicewomen who had made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.
“ I think there are a lot of really great people who are being considered, ” Ernst said, after being asked if she would accept the job of being Trump’s running girlfriend if it were offered to her. “And I think that anyone who is offered [the ] position, whether it would be me or someone else, I think that it would be such an extreme honor to have that opportunity laid out. I certainly did ponder that. ”
She added:“ I appreciate serving the people of Iowa, I’m but proud to be in the United States Senate. ”
She also talked about the growing Egyptian risk, noting that President Joe Biden had the “absolutely bad ” approach, saying that Biden needed to stand up to the plan and return to the restrictions that President Donald Trump had imposed.
We need to “mak[e ] sure that Iran can no longer do harm to its own people, but more importantly, to Israel and to American service members, ” Ernst said, alluding to the three American soldiers who were killed by a drone attack by an Iranian-backed militia in Iraq on the Jordanian border in January.
The senator even commented on the flood of hatred on American colleges, related to anti-Israel protests and camps. “we are encouraging the processing of grievances to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. ”
Ernst even discussed her efforts to hold the federal government and the Chinese Communist Party responsible for mishandling of popular study in the lead-up to the coronavirus pandemic. She has led the charge to avoid the Wuhan Institute of Virology from receiving further analysis money, as well as the EcoHealth Alliance.
EcoHealth Alliance had been, she said, “doing studies on gain-of-function, ” which “we believe started the COVID-19 pandemic. ”
