The Democratic National Committee on Friday released new guidelines for its debate scheduled for March 15th. The new threshold requires each candidate to have at least 20 percent of the delegates that have been awarded thus far. The move singles out Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), who received just two delegates up until now.
Gabbard took to Twitter to urge her opponents, former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-VT), to oppose the DNC's sudden requirement changes.
Tulsi Gabbard 🌺 ✔ @TulsiGabbard .@JoeBiden @BernieSanders I’m sure you would agree that our Democratic nominee should be a person who will stand up for what is right. So I ask that you have the courage to do that now in the face of the DNC's effort to keep me from participating in the debates. #LetTulsiDebate 69.9K 10:42 PM - Mar 6, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 29.1K people are talking about this
Tulsi Gabbard 🌺 ✔ @TulsiGabbard Replying to @TulsiGabbard To keep me off the stage, the DNC again arbitrarily changed the debate qualifications. Previously they changed the qualifications in the OPPOSITE direction so Bloomberg could debate. I ask that you stand w/ me against the DNC’s transparent effort to exclude me from the debates. 32.7K 10:42 PM - Mar 6, 2020

It will never happen. Look, any politician worth his salt wants to win... you’ll take any advantage. This is a (small) advantage. I see no win from taking her side. She has a very small following. People will forget it in a week.
She hasn’t got a chance. Biden nor Berne want her there. She’ll kick their ass. Her best bet is operation chaos in the upcoming primaries. The DNC hate her as much as Berne.
Whatsamatta with u? Let the little girl through!

It’s unfortunate that there is not a Biden-Sanders only debate BEFORE this Tuesday’s primaries in Michigan and 5 other states.
That’s too good. They’re scared of a little girl.
No time to act tough, Tulsi. Bernie’s shooters have got that covered. Run DNC.
Keep up, girlfriend.
My Congresswoman ......who needs to come home and do her job , which we elected her for , here in Hawaii.
Tulsi is AWOL on the entire COVID-19 issue. While making an infrequent return to D.C. to actually cast a rare vote for the funding for the research into and the search of a cure thereof . She mostly just chooses to make cheap shots and critisisms against Trump for his handling of the matter , while she herself has done ZERO to check back in with her District in Hawaii , or make inspections of the 4 major Hawaii airports , all of which are in her CD-2 District . She has not visited or rendered any guidance, or concern to or about these airports , so far. Zero . It would would be major news if she had. Crickets chirping, nada... We CD-2 constituents see her as a useless, self-promoting, political gold-digger, almpst completely uninterested and uninvolved in her own elected Congressional District . We have a saying here in Hawaii : “ Auwe Auwe” ( shame, shame) Indeed
Will we ever be free of Tulsi Gabbard? Or of Mayor Pete...or Elizabeth Warren? Every four years they’re likely to turn up for the Democratic debates, like ghosts of the 2020 presidential election past.
She enjoys the kind of support that accidental hitting of the wrong button brings.
Typical DNC. Not going your way? Just change the rules. Simple.
She’d wipe the floor with both of them, that’s why they (the DNC) don’t want her in the debates.
... wait, that actually isn't right, they both have done a large number of things. But basically all of them were awful and invariably hurt the country.
I hope she does fight back. This whole DeeperDemo charade is pitifully fake. Joe Biden? Come On, Man! Bernie? Pullllease!
You think Joe or Bernie would pull a Reagan and insist he debate? “I am paying for this microphone, Mr. Green!” — Ronald Reagan, February 23, 1980
