She doesn’t need debates. Anyone who doesn’t vote for her will be labeled racist and sexist as well as an enemy of our democracy. So there. 🫵🏾

“Pratt is creating the blueprint on how to campaign and win in the big cities.”

Actually, he doesn’t need to create a blueprint. With the city’s lack of efforts to allow the rich to rebuild in Palisades and the obvious blame being shackled on LA city and country government for the fire and the inability to rebuild, he doesn’t need to create a blueprint. Just sit back and fan the flames.

She has Kamala’s endorsement. So it’s over. Why show up to debate with those...those...outsiders, answer to that...that piece of trailor trash. Kamala and I are hoisting a few, and we’re not to be disturbed./s

How is the fix in? Pratt gets to the general election unscathed if Bassface drops out. Nithya Raman is a stone-cold marxist moron. Pratt ran rings around her last week in the debate.

Bass is skipping a debate to replatform and hire a meme game consultancy, period. Raman is doing exactly the same thing and just jumped on CNN and repudiated her former "defund the police" stance.

They are panicking, but there's nothing more to be read into skipping a debate other than neither ginch wanting to feed Pratt's Meme Machine.

“Either that or she knows the fix is in and there’s no need to debate.”

that’s what i figured too: they already know she’s got enough votes to win, and debates will do nothing but lose her votes because they show just what a moron she really is ...

She thinks being a no show will be better for her than showing up and losing.

She may be right. The election is in California.
