The RNC is finally doing something good.
The RNC is now mulling requiring 2024 candidates to avoid debates hosted by Commission on Presidential Debates.
Perhaps the only worthwhile thing the RNC has done recently.
If the commission won’t respect Republican candidates, no reason for them to show up. https://t.co/SlE4wKHeqB

The Republican National Committee (RNC) is taking aim at the organization that for more than three decades has hosted and produced the presidential and vice presidential general election debates.
In a letter from the RNC to the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) that Fox News obtained on Thursday, the committee said that it will require its presidential candidates running in the 2024 election cycle to pledge not to participate in debates run by the CPD.
If the RNC follows through with their pledge, it could likely lead to a massive shift in how presidential and vice presidential general election debates are conducted.
“The RNC has a duty to ensure that its future presidential nominees have the opportunity to debate their opponents on a level playing field,” RNC chair Ronna McDaniel writes in the letter. “So long as the CPD appears intent on stonewalling the meaningful reforms necessary to restore its credibility with the Republican Party as a fair and nonpartisan actor, the RNC will take every step to ensure that future Republican presidential nominees are given that opportunity elsewhere.”
The RNC’s letter, which was first reported by the New York Times, was fueled by longstanding complaints from then-President Donald Trump and GOP officials over how the 2020 presidential debates were conducted. And the letter was sent after months of talks between the RNC and the commission.
This comes after the 2020 presidential debates were marred by bias from the moderators.
McDaniel’s announcement comes after a series of conversations between the RNC and the commission, according to Fox News, and after former President Donald Trump made his frustration known with how the debates were run.
