The chairwoman of the Republican Party warned that she would advise the GOP's 2024 White House nominee to skip the presidential debates without numerous reforms from the commission that organizes them.Ronna McDaniel, in a three-page letter sent Tuesday to the Commission on Presidential Debates, slammed the organizers of the 2020 debates for what she called 'repeated missteps and partisan actions.' 'The Republican Party needs assurances that the CPD will make meaningful reforms to the debate process by working with stakeholders to restore the faith and legitimacy it has lost. If not, as RNC Chairman, I will have no choice but

Sounds right to me. get some Conservatives asking the questions instead of the biased "journalists."

Good. As for moderators, Have Mark Levin host the first debate and make sure HE poses the hard questions to the dim throwbacks.

And if only Rush was still here and could host one of these debates. At this household, we miss him bigly.

You know that the Commission on Presidential Debates or the League of Women Voters will not recognize conservatives as legitimate "journalists" and they'll say that journalists are schooled to be independent in their writing, and not be swayed by their personal political views, blah, blah, blah. They'll probably throw the Republicans a bone and say that Chris Wallace is with Fox News, a recognized conservative news site, etc., so stop complaining. Then if the Republican candidate declines to join the debate, Kamela Mattressback or whoever their nominee is, will taunt the Republican candidate, "What are you afraid of? Can't you argue your point of view before unbiased journalists? If you're afraid to debate, you're not Presidential material, and so on. Stacked deck.

Unless the vote-counting machines and mail-out-in voting are exterminated... it don't make diddly-squat what Rona says.
We have no enthusiasm for another fraud election... can't believe Republicans let Dems get away with the Steal!! As they say in Bridge... pencil-whipped.

The generalized tone of her letter does not move the powers that be, not one iota. Specific requests that would make major adjustments in who moderates the debates is a good start. Asking for general assurances that there will be fairness is not serious. I am not trying to be negative. We have had how many biased Presidential debate forums designed to help Democrats. Its always the same thing. Our side accepts it and never puts teeth in the threats or truly fights for CHANGE.

The debates are fine, even with the lunatic rioters outside. Fix the election process or it all means nothing!

I boycotted the 2020 debates. What a farce! Don't bother with presidential debates. It is a waste of time debating a Democrat. Don't make voting a waste of time, Ronna! There is no way I am bothering to vote if Dominion is counting the votes, or the Democrat and RIno Secs of State, and Zuckerburg are running the election.

They should just PLAN on not going to these Dem propaganda events. If the Dems want to change MASSIVELY, let them submit to Republican control.

The candidates should pick the moderators not some left wing organization with zero credibility. They can have 2 moderators and have them take turns asking questions.

Ok first question..
Do you have any knowledge of Democrat vote fraud at any time anywhere?
Second question
Do you mind if republicans verify the votes as they are counted?
Third question
Do you believe that dominion and the Chinese have in place a way to skew the votes toward the democrat candidates?
Fourth question
Why are you such a liar?

The problem with the Republican Party is that they will swallow a camel and choke on a gnat. Get your priorities in check. There was massive cheating that changed the outcome of the 2020 election, but let’s make sure the Commission on Presidential Debates gets a strongly worded letter to make sure everything there is on the up and up. What does that matter when the democrats are set to do what they did in 2020 & 2022 in 2024? This is an issue that needs to be addressed but the issue of the day, nay the century, is that an illegitimate fraud is sitting behind the Resolute Desk and the country is being destroyed because of it. Get behind these audits or nothing else matters.

This is not a great idea. If this is all that is done, the Republicans will have surrendered to the Democrats. The Republicans need to provide an alternative at the same time the CPD/Democrats are holding their "debate." A President Trump style pep rally comes to mind.

I wish Trump had skipped the debates. The first one, with Never Trumper Chris Wallace, was a disaster with the candidates interrupting each other and the second one was too late to do any good. As for the future, there is no one who can be an unbiased moderator--at least not among the MSM. We saw this even during the Obama-Romney debate. The debates are basically to see if the moderator can throw the Republican candidate off his game.

#2, before looking at the postings, Mark Levin was the first name that I thought of.

This is far reaching futuristic garbage to be discussing. We better worry about fixing voting fraud before 2022 first. Those debates do mean a thing and hasn't since Hillary and Obama era politics hit Washington. Primary dog shows are better when it within the parties after that it's rigged against the republican candidates. At this juncture since the national fraud of 2020 I think the RNC should be thinking about serious things like winning in the next election and not beyond that.

Moderator to Democrat candidate: “Why is the Republican Party so corrupt?”
Democrat candidate: “Well, blah, blah, and blah.”
Moderator, (in all their balance and fairness) then immediately asks the Republican candidate: “Why is your party so corrupt?”

Ya think? The Media has always had control of these SHAM debates, asked softball questions of Democraps and Hardball of Republicans...It was very obvious when Pres. Trump was in the debates but he handled them well and shoved most questions up their nether regions! Going forward I wouldn't accept questions from ANY MSM Democrap Hack, first I'd reject their pathetic biased premise (which they always are), then I would criticize the questioner naming their biases/faults, and take down their employer etc. only then I would I'd rephrase the question to be meaningful and truthful, then answer.

The ''debates'' should go the way of the founding organization, the League of Women Voters. Take the hoop skirts, bustles and top hats with you. There is a certain bad taste left from the most recent set of debacles that can only worsen. Like the old adage says, when you've gone too deep, stop digging.

If it's the Republican party I know - they'll fold. Probably backwards.

As if the threat of boycott even matters . . . until the GOP grows a pair for real, these threats are mere blather.

This article is a bit snarky. Trump didn't give Covid to anyone. Remember here on Lucianne.com there was a story about Trump's inner circle and Trump getting the virus and with suspicious circumstances after the first debate. Never trust the demonrats! Check it out!

Mega dittos to Ldotter 18. My reaction was exactly the same when I saw this article. First of all McDaniel is a total disaster. She sat on a YUUGE pot of money in 2020 and did absolutely nothing to stop the steal, even as Democrats publicly reported on what they were going to do. And now she writes some ridiculous letter about the 2024 debates, as she sits in her office, hiding under her desk and NEVER,EVER commenting on (at least I haven't seen it if she has) all of the states that are auditing their elections and how they are being thwarted at every turn from uncovering the facts of 2020, whatever they be. What the hell do we have a Republican party for? She should be on TV every single day giving updates on exactly what is happening with those states. Yo Ronna, we aint' never gonna take back the House and Senate in 2022 unless some sort of integrity is restored to elections. Instead of fretting over what will happen in the 2024 debates, I suggest you concentrate on what will be happening in the 2022 election. Got it?
The fact that this gross incompetent was re-elected Chair of the RNC tells you everything you need to know about just how lame and what a pathetic loser organization the Republican Party is. She needs to be dumped, today and get someone like maybe Mercedes Schlapp to take over. Then Ronna can go off and have family dinners with her uncle Pierre.

They're not debates. For Dems, they're schmooze-fests. For GOPs they're a lynch mob. GOPs should boycott them.
