Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) has said she won’t be dropping out of the 2020 Democratic presidential race after she narrowly missed the cut for the upcoming third Democratic presidential debate this month.

Addressing voters’ concerns on Aug. 31 that she may pull out of the race for the White House, the 38-year-old congresswoman said at a town hall in Atlanta: “Hell, no!”

“I started hearing from a lot of people in the media when they said, ‘OK, you didn’t make the third debate. Are you quitting?’” Gabbard said, after failing to make the lineup of 10 candidates put in place by the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

“If any of them had been listening to what I’ve been saying about what this movement is about, about why I’m running for president, and what is at stake, they would understand why we are here and why we will never quit,” she added.

Speaking on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Gabbard argued that the DNC’s debate criteria “lacks transparency.”

“There’s a whole bunch of different polls that have come out. The DNC has only recognized some of them as being qualifying polls for the debate,” she said.

Stay in the fight, Tulsi.
I like that you took Kammy to the woodshed a few weeks back.
Do everybody a favor and do the same thing to Castro or Cory.
Both deserve to be shown as the brain-free phony’s that they are.

People gave me money and I’m going to spend it!

Still angling for a cabinet position. Won’t matter since no Dem has a chance.

She should stay in.

She is way too close to being sane for the Rats and she dared to make “The First Viable African American Female Presidential Candidate” look bad.

I'm all for Tulsi staying in it. Those early polls being a determining factor is ludicrous. They favor the already known candidates and the ones the media chooses to publicize. Add to that, she served her two weeks in the Reserves when the other pols were out campaigning.

The way she's been treated is everything that's wrong with the process in both political parties. After Donald Trump, they're even more determined to stick us with "the lesser of two evils", just like it was supposed to be with Jeb vs hillary.

PS: Sending her a small contribution and choosing her in polls is something to consider for those of us who want to stop the treachery from the Democrat Party.

Tulsi is in deep denial, fully delusional. She didn’t meet the pathetic minimum debate requirements and now she’s celebrating a “crowd” of 300.

.......As if such a small crowd means that her campaign is surging. LMAO.

I hope DeBlasio keeps campaigning. He’s always good for a laugh.

Gabbard spending lots of money in Iowa. My guess is she’ll stay in through February, hoping for traction in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and S. Carolina. There may be some hidden support among traditional Dems who aren’t thrilled with the Hard Left who’ve taken over.

Not that I’m rooting for any of them but allowing Beto to proceed to the next round of debates while denying Tulsi just isn’t right.

Tucker must really like her, she has been on his show several times. She’s still a LIB, no matter how you look at hit.

I hoped she was out. She is the only Dem who has any chance against Trump.

Sorry Tulsi, but Trump winning is IMPERATIVE!

If the Dems were smart they would run her, but the World Wide Revolution takes precedence over any sort of political sense.

That is true, now she is tagged as racist as per the law of liberals that states: “The actions and comments of any non-white person can NEVER be questioned!”

And if you ask me, Gabbard I would say had the best chance of beating Trump, she comes across as the most normal, but the Rats are too stupid to realize this so in the end they’ll probably nominate any one of the psychopaths like the woman who thinks she’s a Cherokee or the Indian who thinks she is black.
