Presidential debates without Trump are becoming RNC headaches – POLITICO

The RNC says the third debate, set for Nov. 8 in Miami, will go on as planned. In a statement, a spokesperson for the committee said that as long as there are candidates who qualify for the stage and want to debate, the RNC will continue to sanction debates.

But some RNC members are coming to the conclusion that going forward with the debates may not be worthwhile, given Trump s refusal to participate. Their posture underscores the growing sentiment within GOP ranks that the party should acknowledge the high likelihood that the former president will prevail in the primary and turn its attention to the general. It also underscores the degree to which Trump, who is dominating in polls, is undermining the traditional means of selecting a nominee and diminishing the RNC s power in facilitating the primary process.
