Republicans will not debate.

[odanny]

If the pussy Republicans continue to not engage in addressing the issues on a national stage about things important to Americans, it will definitely hurt them with independents, those clowns who can't make up their minds until the last minutes before the polls close. They will remember something like this. The QAnon cult, the Trump cult, the white supremacists, the religious fanatics, and other assorted bottom feeders will all show up to vote Republican, problem is, that is not a majority of Americans, not even close. Their only hope will continue to be the Electoral College, but with all their voter disenfranchisement measures they have put in place, it might just steal them an election regardless of who votes.

This is good news. Hey Democases, I have a question. Why are all POTUS debates run by leftists? You figure Biden would debate Trump on TV if it was managed by say, Fox News?

Fuck no, that's not how it works.

 

[Rogue AI]

So you admit that the GOP has something to hide. Defending criminals....what a surprise.

They have nothing to hide. On the plus side, this will be long gone from voters' minds by November. Get your whining in now, nobody is going to discuss this again.

Popular with trumptards? Those are not very high standards, now, is it?

Everyone you listen to has no standards, besides double ones. I have said before your ilk is morally bankrupt and I just said it again.

Have not won the popular vote since what Bush I?

No. They won it in 2004.

They are run by the CPD; not "leftists".

It's good to see Republicans putting up the stand where voting is concerned. Fight those bastards, their voting rights bill is a fraud. Get the left and right out of these debates, especially the leftists who influence them 90-10 at least.

Mitt Romney is NOT a fan of the CPD. See my post below.

Good for the GOP. They should only hold debates with American parties, not left wing criminal syndicates; this gives the criminal America hating deviants and racist thugs a semblance of legitimacy they don't deserve. It's like being on the same stage with pedophiles and mass murderers or Mexican cartel bosses, of which Democrats are all those and much more.

I read thru the 1st few pages and didn't see ANY discussion of WHY the RNC is concerned. Here's WHY they've negotiating with the CPD.

Republican National Committee threatens to opt out of CPD-sponsored presidential debates

The Republican National Committee announced it could move to prohibit its future nominees from participating in events sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates.

www.washingtonexaminer.com

The RNC cited a number of concerns with the CPD. It highlighted the commission's selection of Steve Scully, who served as an intern to Joe Biden in college, to moderate one of the 2020 presidential debates. It said a majority of the commission's board members publicly disparaged the Republican presidential nominee. The RNC also criticized the nonprofit organization for hosting the first debate after early voting had already begun.

Republicans demanded a slew of changes in the letter, calling for term limits for the commission's board of directors, more transparent criteria for selecting debate moderators, and a stronger code of conduct for moderating debates. They also asked the CPD to commit to holding at least one debate before early voting takes place.

RNC officials have been meeting with CPD officials for months prior to Thursday's announcement. The party has long accused the debate commission of being unfair to its candidates. In 2012, debate moderator Candy Crowley took former President Barack Obama's side during an exchange about the 2012 Benghazi attack. Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican nominee, subsequently criticized Crowley for that.

That all seems completely reasonable to me. What problems do YOU have with the RNC pointing all this OBVIOUS shit out to them?

You think that selection Steve Scully who was a Biden intern to MODERATE a Biden debate is "fair and balanced"???

And your comment about ALL past Republican Presidents are "honorary members" of the commission -- Does that make them decision makers on ANY important particular debate details? Nope.

I hate the whole concept of CPD. It's just another duopoly battleground. One that SHOULD include ANY CANDIDATE that has qualified for 50 state ballot position. OR EVEN -- ENOUGHT states to win an electoral majority. It's RIPE for partisanship. Even the concept of having ANY past presidents, politicians or media hacks as honorary or titular members.

Because they realize that debating doesn't matter much. Most people vote based on emotions, so they just want to emotionally manipulate them.

Debating often becomes about how they look, how they said it etc, rather than actual policies.

[C_Clayton_Jones]

so you can't, so it's you who is the coward, got it. you would never accept a conservative moderator, say it out loud stop being afraid to make your point. You're allergic to truth.

Republicans are cowards, dishonest, and liars.

They have nothing but contempt for sound, responsible governance and our democratic institutions.

 

[bripat9643]

Based on Rump's last two campaigns... it was to make him $hut his goddamned mouth and give somebody else a turn to talk...

Thanks for admitting that the moderators were deliberately helping the Democrat.

Good. This is how you do it.

It's a horribly flawed, partisan process that doesn't even pretend to be unbiased. The Democrats are absolutely tanking. Let them tank without our help. We don't need this.

So multi trillion dollar deficits as far as the eye can see is "responsible government?" Throwing the Bill of Rights into the trashcan is respecting our democratic institutions?

For the last few days you have been defending the government of North Korea, and you claim to believe in democracy?

You messed with people's kids and then exposed everything.

What a time to be alive.
