Republicans Are Furious With CNBC Over What They're Doing To the Next GOP Debate

I think the GOP needs to bypass the enemy and do the debates themselves. Put it on live streaming/C-Span, and offer the feed to the networks. Its disgusting having to work with the enemy.

[A CA Guy]

If you don’t have 4% now get out morons.

[Gaffer]

I think CNBC only has dollar signs in their eyes drooling over the amount of money it can charge for commercial air time if they lengthen the amount of time their effing moderator(s) can foment trouble and dissention.

[Resolute Conservative]

Youtube it and take the MSM out of the loop, that would frost them.

[airborne]

Republican National Committee officials who were on the call to said they would take up the matter with pretend to object and then cave to CNBC, Politico reported.

There, fixed it!

[Sacajaweau]

Donald....show us how that deal thing works.

I am not buying the theory that the Republican candidates would rather utilize their time making opening and closing statements as opposed to answering and actually debating real questions.

[Zenjitsuman]

I am sure Drudge could host a web debate, stream it everywhere, and get Levin , Hannity and Rush to be moderators.

Why keep putting cash into the pockets of the enemy

[Jim W N]

Its disgusting having to work with FOR the enemy.

[Mears]

I long for the days when there were no debates.

It’s show biz now,and not needed,especially with the internet.

[Logical me]

Republicans are fools to even consider debates with communists. The entire MSM are communists and will destroy as much of the Republican candidates they can. When a gotcha question is asked just ignore and talk about conservative answers to problems. It will drive these communists monitors crazy. Do the debaters have the guts. There piss ants don't except for Trump and maybe Cruz.

“I think the GOP needs to bypass the enemy and do the debates themselves. Put it on live streaming/C-Span, and offer the feed to the networks.”

CSPAN? That would cause viewership to drop from 20,000,000 people to 375 people.

[BigEdLB]

I think Rinse Fleabait ought to get Trump involved. The Donald will put the hammer down, and CNBC will behave better.

[tcrlaf]

A republican appearing on ANY NBC outlet should immediately assume they are dealing WITH AN ENEMY.

[napscoordinator]

I think the opening and closing statements are a waste. They will say the same thing they have the last two times. More questions is the right way to go. Heck they spend most time yelling at each other anyway and issues never get discussed so what’s the big deal.

[ScottinVA]

Many of the Republicans complained about a CNBC plan to drop opening and closing statements to allow more time for questions from moderators at the event

Well, what the hell? There'll be a gaggle of 11 or 12 standing on that stage. At least scrap the opening statements. We already have an idea who these people are.

That assumes that CNBC is the enemy of the GOPe.

I wonder....

[MNJohnnie]

No what it dos is allow the leftist media moderators to control the debate.

[Jeff Chandler]

If you don’t have 4% now get out morons.

Amen, Brutha!
