Rep. Tulsi Gabbard Dodges Debating Opponent

[Deblano]

My, my. What happened to Sander's touted endorsement?

Could it be that she can't commit to what she preaches? Senator Sanders and his cronies need to put a sock in it.

A daily reminder that Tulsi Gabbard is actually terrible.

[Santander]

She is the most shameless, self-promoting Democrat after Liz Warren.

[Kingpoleon]

Gabbard is the incumbent. If her opponent is getting over 30% in the polls, then, yes, she should debate her opponent. However, otherwise, it's pretty stupid to demand every incumbent debate every primary challenger.

[Ebsy]

There is no expectation for incumbents to debate primary challengers.

[Lief 🗽]

Gabbard is one of the worst Democrats in Congress. Fully support primarying this pro-Assad right wing bigot.

I generally agree with this statement, not every incumbent should have to debate joke candidates. But Gabbard was quite vocal in her desire to see more democratic debates at the presidential level. If she truly values debates, she should listen to her own advice and debate her opponent (at least one time!)

With someone pro ISIS?

[Landslide Lyndon]

You know, Kirsten Gillibrand was called derisively by her colleagues "Tracy Flick" but I think Gabbard is the one who fully deserves that moniker.
 

[IceSpear]

Maybe her opponent is a radical homosexual extremist, and therefore she's declining on principle?

Tulsi Gabbard is an opportunist. What a shock.
