quote:

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis told Fox News on Thursday that he plans to participate in the first GOP presidential debate in August, whether or not former President Donald Trump attends.

"I'll be there, regardless," DeSantis said. "I hope everybody who is eligible comes. I think it is an important part of the process, and I look forward to being able to be on the stage and introducing our candidacy and our vision and our leadership to a wide audience."

Kind of wish the debates were split up with less people on stage. Remember in '16 there were like 400 people on stage - 397 of them had no business being up there.

Looking at you Carly.

Sharing the stage with Christy, Pence, and Haley.

That's going to naturally further define him as a 2nd tier candidate.

They have the most boring repertoire as well. Everything is scripted for them.

As he should be. Trump should too. Let them fight it out and we’ll all benefit from it.

Debate needs to be Trump, DeSantis, Pence, Vivek, and Haley.

Gives a good representation of all aspects of the party.

This means DeSantis will agree to the pledge to endorse the winner of the primary.

Action’s on you, Don…

Wondering if they are thinking this is something he has to do now. Kind of an all in type moment.
I do believe it looks bad on Trump not doing it. I also think there is still room for these candidates to move. I am glad he is debating and he is right it should be part of the process for being elected.

Even better. He tried to pull a fast one and had a thread title that didn't match the content of his post. Look at him duck your question now.
