The debates on both major parties are nothing but a series of manipulations by the liberals for years. Now the RNC tries to to run a couple and find out it is nothing more than stacking the deck with questions designed to shape what the questioner wishes to accomplish, not showcase the candidates answers. It is always a series of do you only beat your wife on weekdays?
The candidates are out there on the trails and are being misreported all the time anyway. So if the libs run the questions, they accomplish the point they try for. If the conservatives run the questions, it ends up being blood bath in the next day’s news and nobody wins. Don’t have them. They are an opportunity to fail no matter what. And they don’t do anything in presentation but offer someone to twist what is being said till the candidate is completely swamped.

I would agree...it was an attempt to sell people on DeSantis and/or Haley. They probably added up the numbers from each debate and realized that the only person gaining ‘respect’ was Vilek. So they are a waste of time.
Looking back over 20 years, I’d now say that 99-percent of the debates run by the Republican national folks...were marginal or failures. Planned this way or accidental, I can’t say.
