The Republican National Committee has warned some of the 2024 GOP presidential candidates about attending an Iowa Christian organization’s Thanksgiving forum, saying it would disqualify them from participating in future RNC presidential debates.
Five candidates – former President Donald Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott – were invited to the Family Leader’s “Thanksgiving Family Forum” on November 17.
“It has come to the attention of the RNC Counsel’s Office that several Republican presidential candidates have been invited to participate in an open-press event in Iowa in November at which they would ‘gather around the table to have a moderated, friendly, and open discussion about the issues.’ In other words, a debate,” the RNC counsel’s office said in a letter obtained by CNN.
“Accordingly, please be advised that any Republican presidential candidate who participates in this or other similar events will be deemed to have violated this pledge and will be disqualified from taking part in any future RNC-sanctioned presidential primary debates,” the office said.
In its letter, dated October 28, the office reminded the candidates that they had agreed not to participate in any non-RNC-sanctioned debates during the campaign.

Really, that Trump supported her is cause for serious concern.
______________________________________________
I wonder if he knew that the RNC members’ minds were made up and that they would give him absolutely no campaign support if he spoke against her, so he went along with what the RNC wanted in the interest of getting funding and ultimately winning using his campaign’s own strategies.
Say what?
Priebus seems conservative to me, at least when I see him on the cable channels.
Atwater near the end of his short life issued an apology to Dukakis over Willie Horton.
DeSantis said he was going anyways and Romney backed down.
RNC backs off on warning candidates about participating in Iowa Christian group’s forum
Well, he still beats the hell out of that fool DeSantis. DeSantis put that witch Pushaw, Zelensky’s tart, as part of his campaign.
No thanks.
WHEN will the RNC get a Conservative leader that will, well, ACTUALLY LEAD? FIRE RONNA!
I think the only real loyal selection of Trump was Dennis Rodman.
The DC Lifers Trump hired are only loyal to the Deep State.
I know he was dying.
Cut him a break.
They should ALL go, and be unfailingly polite to each other. It would be awesome.
Sounds like the Saudi golf league kerfuffle.
“She should be fired.”
Really. Who has the authority to do that? The Board of Directors?
Why would any other candidate support this fake ass forum funded by DeSanctimonious monies? I place this event in who the hell gives a cr@p column.
The GOPe in a death spiral!
