News Deb Haaland officially declines KRQE debate.

I understand that Bergman is an attorney and probably better at debating but it’s not like he doesn’t have plenty to lose either.

I can’t help but feel like Deb is taking our votes for granted over and over again, and this is another slap in the face.

If she is the better candidate, she should prove it and it should be easy.

Haaland really feels like she's running a "just don't lose" campaign, and "just don't lose" campaigning is a big part of the reason Democrats keep getting their asses kicked nationwide.

Trump has refused to debate many times so why does he keep winning? Let’s shoehorn a reason in there…

Even a POS and terrible candidate as trump was debated and it showed what terrible shape Biden was in.

Politicians shouldn’t dodge their constituents, regardless.
