Tulsi Gabbard Threatens Boycott of Next Democratic Debate Over ‘Rigging’

Gabbard is calling out the Democratic Party machine.

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) is threatening to boycott next week’s Democratic Party debate because she feels her party’s establishment is “rigging” the proceedings against anti-establishment candidates such as herself.

“The 2016 Democratic Primary election was rigged by the DNC and their partners in the corporate media against Bernie Sanders,” Gabbard said in a statement.

“In this 2020 election, the DNC and corporate media are rigging the election again, but this time against the American people in the early voting states of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada,” she added.



 

“They are attempting to replace the roles of voters in the early states, using polling and other arbitrary methods which are not transparent or democratic, and holding so-called debates which are not debates at all but rather commercialized reality television meant to entertain, not inform or enlighten,” Gabbard said. “In short, the DNC and corporate media are trying to hijack the entire election process.”

Fellow non-traditional Democratic Party presidential candidate, Marianne Williamson, echoed Gabbart’s sentiments on Twitter.

I have great respect for Tulsi for saying such inconvenient truth. She is absolutely correct. https://t.co/HDRV5avPMO

Gabbard is perhaps the only Democratic Party candidate with the courage to take on the corporate establishment. She is also suing Google, accusing the Big Tech giant of censoring her following a strong presidential debate performance earlier this year:
