They did this in 2016 too and Trump was the only one who said he wouldn’t.

A pledge is the best thing you can do. It makes them go on record with a commitment so if they want to break the commitment they can be called the sorry piece of shite they are.

It was a question asked at the beginning of the debate but I don’t believe it was a requirement to participate in the debate.

Trump won the 2016 primary and was supported by the party again in 2020.

Spoiler: You were never going to vote for him. You’re a Ronbot who will vote for Brandon when your boy drops out of the race.

Two time Trump voter. My post history is one click away. ProSoundAdam already read through it for everyone and for a couple weeks let everyone know he discovered I liked playing Pokémon Go.

I don’t think it was. I didn’t really pay close attention to the article in the OP. I’m too focused on trolling the Rant over LSU wasting Skenes today.

Though if the GOP isn’t careful this is a good way to martyr Trump. He’s teased not debating but if they ban him then he can turn it into another populist and anti-establishment cause.

These idiots do not realize things like this have happened since 1796 with Jefferson v Adams. Do some research and know history before acting like a jackass over he said but he said.

There will be 1 D and 1 R in 11/24. Who you vote for or against says all we need to know about you.

If there is one GOP candidate on the ballot then yes the GOP will be united behind that candidate.

If Trump refuses to make the pledge, then he’s leaving himself the option of wrecking the GOP’s chances.

It wouldn't surprise me if Trump held his own debate at some resort with a handful of candidates


He should do a round table discussion with the gals from the view in prime time

That wasn’t me. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that you must be thinking of someone else and not just making shite up.

In my head Trump voice:

"As long as the primaries are not fraudulent... look what the Dems did to Bernie Sanders. What a disgrace, and I like Bernie. He may be wrong on everything, but at least he's consistent and true to his beliefs. I respect that. What the Dems did to him to get Lying Hillary the nomination was a complete disgrace, but we all know the Dems have perfected the art of election manipulation. So sure, I will support the eventual nominee, but I reserve to change my mind if there's ANY hanki-panki."
