Can POTUS demand FNC as only host of debates?

The DNC excluded Fox News from the Democratic Primary debates. When they finally choose a challenger and it is time for the Presidential debates can DJT refuse to appear in any debate that isn't on FNC?

I know that there is a Presidential Debate Commission but it doesn't have the ability to compel the President to accept their recommendations.

He and Trump are Friends, Trump took him to Korea instead of Bolton.

FOX has gone left, Trump should pick someone else.

OANN maybe.

Really? I was not aware. Kind of odd, but, ok.

There are plenty of Trump haters at FNC without having to bring her back. That's not the point. It doesn't even have to be FNC. It could be OAN. The point is that if the Dems felt they could choose a platform to hold their debates based on the political persuasion of the news organization why can't he do the same?

bad idea to have fox the only agency for the debate....We look best when the demacrat party over reaches with there shenanigans. best to let the left be left. at this point all they are doing is driving away anyone who is objective that still vote demacrat.

It would be the RNC and not POTUS’s call, wouldn’t it?

Fox and OANN Breitbart, and several more Conservative websites as well as cbs abc nbc should be invited

Tucker should moderate.

CNN should not be invited and it should be mentioned several times by reporters.

The RNC and the Presidential Debate Commission can suggest. That doesn’t mean DJT has to listen to their suggestions.

No moderators at all!!!!!!!!

Have a Lincoln-Douglas style of debate.

Let Joe or Lie-A-Watha stand toe to toe with PDJT.

Alternating turns on who asks the question/subject. 3 or 5 minute replies and a HARD 1 minute rebuttal by each.

Tucker and Greg would be great. The whole world would get a view of what is going on and be entertained by Greg’s humorous take on all of it at the same time.

The GOP should sponsor its own debates - set our own rules, and keep the advertising revenue.

The GOP leadership should be debating Leftists every month in various venues, especially in toss up states.

Instead, our leadership begs the Leftist media to sponsor debates - on their terms.

Forget that noise!

And, we should pay for our own primaries.

The GOP is supposed to be about self-reliance and free enterprise.

Instead, we let the Political Left control our debates, and we let state government bureaucrats control our primaries.

Mon Dieu!

We are so weak.

That’s a great idea. But would the other side go for it?

…”I thought Tucker hated President Trump?
Never watch FNC anymore.”...

Not true. Please watch a couple of Tucker’s shows and you will be hooked again. He is the most awesome journalist on the planet and has the courage to call out the insanity of the coastal elites who make up the majority of the left in this country. It is very frustrating to know that those locked in poverty in every single city that looks exactly like Baltimore, which have been run by corrupt Democrats for decades, have not been helped at all by the billions of federal dollars given to their governments over time. I would give anyone a guess as to whose pockets that money found it’s way into. That is why Trump is hated. He wants to help the down and out in America and the corrupt money grubbers want their wealth to grow from the corrupt system they have managed to put into place. My opinion. Meanwhile, generations are being lost because they have no way to get out of the poverty they are in. I hope they will give President Trump a chance to help them for I believe this is their moment and if it passes, nothing will ever be done.
