The Republican National Committee on Friday afternoon said it would pause participation in further Republican presidential primary debates, effectively leaving decisions around future debates up to media organizations and the 2024 Republican presidential candidates themselves.
“We have held four successful debates across the country with the most conservative partners in the history of a Republican primary,” the Republican National Committee (RNC)'s Committee on Presidential Debates said in a statement. “We have no RNC debates scheduled in January and any debates currently scheduled are not affiliated with the RNC.”
“It is now time for Republican primary voters to decide who will be our next President and candidates are free to use any forum or format to communicate to voters as they see fit,” the committee said.
It’s definitely both parties. DNC said months ago that there would be no primary debates.
The sitting presidents party never has a primary debate if re-election is on the table. It would just cost the president votes in the general election.
The dems sure as shit had debates in 2008, 2016, 2020, and will in 2028.
If you want to quibble about the debates being nearly useless, that’s currently a guarantee, but thats a process thing, not a “they don’t happen” thing.
2/3rds of democrats don’t want Biden to run
Preferring someone else vs a man who stated his intent to be a dictator on day 1?
Yeah, somehow im betting Biden is still carrying those votes.
Only issue with that strategy is that Biden needs like 55% of the vote, and younger voters aren’t willing to keep voting for the lesser of two evils and are turning away from Biden.
Biden needs the younger voters especially in the swing states
Do you have a citation for that, or is that just a feeling?
It’s not worth losing the incumbent advantage, especially when the opponent is an open fascist.
