Rep. Tulsi Gabbard ends presidential campaign
ABC News ^ | March 19, 2020 | Beatrice Peterson

Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has announced the end to her campaign following continued low placement in national polls, a weak finish during Super Tuesday and subsequent contests and failing to meet the thresholds to participate in the most recent series of Democratic National Committee sponsored debates.

The Hawaii congresswoman announced her bid in January 2019. By the time of her departure from the race, the once diverse field of candidates dwindled leaving Gabbard the last person of color, veteran and millennial seeking a bid for the White House.

didn’t agree with her positions, but at least she was cogent, reasonable and ‘likeable’.

She was the last woman in the race, but ABC can’t say that, since they earlier gave that title to Warren.

Get’n’ hard to keep the lies straight, isn’t it, ABC?

I guess more Lindsey Graham to fill the FOX airtime Tulsi had monopolized.

Well, it ended about 8 months ago. She just got the memo.

But she’s still hot. Best looking candidate since Sarah

Rep. Gabbard was a breath or fresh air on the Democrat side. She is far to the left in most of her positions, to far to the left. However, she and Yang were the only Democrat candidates that, from where I sit, neither hated the country like Sanders, nor held the common citizenry in contempt like Biden, Warren, etc...

She gets credit for that. No a chance I hell I would vote for her to be dogcatcher, but she does get some credit.

"...she was cogent, reasonable and ‘likeable’."

And once she bitch-slapped Hillary it was all over for her.
Probably lucky she wasn't suicided....

“Rep. Tulsi Gabbard ends presidential campaign”

might as well ... the fake stream enemedia pretended like she didn’t exist and Tucker is too busy trying to scare people with end-of-the-world coronavirus scenarios to have her on his show anymore ...

Tulsi Gabbard’s strategy seems to have been to hang around long enough to win the six delegates from American Somoa, which would have kept her on the debate stage beyond Super Tuesday when most other candidates dropped out.

Reasonable plan, but one that did not account for Michael Bloomberg’s entry into the race. Bloomberg’s campaign sputtered but he managed to deny Gabbard a clean sweep in Somoa which made it much easier for the DNC to continue to ignore her.

Its unfortunate really...Gabbard and Sanders tag teaming Uncle Joe Biden during last Sunday’s debate would have been a spectacle worth watching.

She can’t be in any more debates. Her only hope was for Biden and Sanders to both drop dead before the convention.

I’d have to say the odds are decent that between Hillary, SlowJoe, and Burney, one of them could croak from Corona.

Oh please. She wouldn’t be getting a single compliment about being less wacky than the others if she was unattractive. Put em back in your pants.
