THE RNC JUST RIGGED THE 2020 GOP PRIMARIES

[Soph0571]

Are you a Republican who would like to challenge President Donald Trump in 2020? Good luck with that.
The Republican National Committee just voted to get rid of the body that organizes presidential primary debates, so if you want to debate other GOP presidential candidates, including President Trump, you'll have to do it on your own. (And don't expect Trump to agree to a debate.)

CNN calls it "a small but meaningful change signaling that Republicans do not plan to sanction any primary debates in the upcoming presidential election cycle." It's also "a warning to would-be Republican rivals of President Donald Trump about his strong support among party loyalists."

The fragility of democracy ......

1. Maybe Kasich will run as an independent?

IMO he's just as bad as Trump but he could be useful by splitting their vote

2. I don't care

Trump won't be president by then, anyway. The GOP will either change the new rules or they'll keep them in place to protect Pence... if he's even still there.

Besides, I'll never vote in a Republican primary anyway.

4. Lots of people on here also said he wouldn't last a year in office.

Best to hope he's gone in the short term, but prepare to take him out in an election long term.

3. Weren't Republicans concerned that the D primary was rigged

in favor of Clinton, the frontrunner?

And now they are doing basically the same?

5. I half expect them to cancel the next election.

Until they can figure out what going on there.

7. Only half?

6. Trump would never debate anyway

So I don't think it matters.
