Tom Perez braces for criticism from Democrats for cutting the size of the clown car at the debates

AT: 

Need any more evidence that Democrats are nuts?

With 24 candidates running for president against President Trump, Democratic Party chairman Tom Perez has moved to cut the size of the clown car so voters can at least see the candidates on a single screen at the upcoming first debate, come June.  Fringe candidates can go to the children’s table.  According to the Associated Press:

The parameters, announced Wednesday, are likely to help cull a crop of 24 candidates and, in the process, intensify scrutiny on Democratic Chairman Tom Perez and his pledge to give all candidates a chance to be heard .

The DNC’s outline for its September debate — the third of at least a dozen promised matchups during the 2020 nominating fight — decrees that candidates can participate only by reaching 2% in four approved polls released between June 28 and Aug. 28 while also collecting contributions from a minimum of 130,000 unique donors before Aug. 28. That donor list must include a minimum of 400 individuals in at least 20 states. The qualifications would remain the same for an October debate, though the party hasn’t set the deadline for measuring fundraising and polling.

Notice how the Associated Press delicately says it will “increase scrutiny.”  more here

  1. Shucks, I wanted to hear what every candidates donut preference was. How will I ever learn how to eat salad with a comb? These are such important questions for the Dems. I’m not sure I can live without the answers. 😭

  2. It’s amusimg to watch them use common sense and good management when it comes to trying to win, then when they win, they revert back to chaos from behind which they loot the government.

    Outright bought and paid for PARTY corruption on Prime Time TV.

    This needs amplification.

  4. They can have a debate before the big debate for the rest of the crew like the Republicans did when they had 17 candidates. The real problem is making sure the group you premiere don’t end up looking like a bunch of lunatics (impossible to avoid). You also have to balance your identity politics which is going to be a huge issue when your front runners are the chosen old white Biden and crazy Bernie beating up on 10 other minority, gay and/or female candidates.

    C’mon people, get me on the ballot. I will arm lock, bend over, and dry hump the candidate(s) of your choice on international live television.
