genuine political question:

if you believe in a free democracy, how do you grapple with the fact that the DNC isn’t  having debates for any of its presidential nominees and will likely not allow for a presidential debate? 

i genuinely don’t understand why it seemingly doesn’t bother anyone, regardless of party.

I think parties in power concede that continuation of the status quo is better than fresh ideas. Also, to prevent the incumbent from orchestrating sabotage if he's unsupported. The same is also seen in how incumbents have veto on their replacement.
