How two of these candidates were able to qualify just boggles the mind. Then again, we have to reset that old brain muscle memory and remind ourselves this is all grand theatre created to give the illusion of something entirely different.
I mean, how do Doug Burgum and Asa Hutchinson have enough support to appear on a GOP debate stage, unless the script writers are working the backroom angles to get them a podium spot?
With President Trump refusing to walk into the trap, according to the RNC statement, the eight people who qualify for the Fox News first loser debate are: (1) Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, (2) businessperson Vivek Ramaswamy, (3) former Vice President Mike Pence, (4) former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, (5) Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.), (6) former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, (7) North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and (8) former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson.
I’m not sure how many people are planning to tune into the irrelevant debate; let me know if you want an open thread with livestream in the comment section.
Meanwhile, in a national poll released today, President Trump continues to extend his insurmountable lead as the support of the American electorate keeps growing.
Inside the FiveThirtyEight (Premise Poll) of registered voters: President Trump leads with 60% of the vote, the next closest candidate is Ron DeSantis with 16%, followed by Ramaswamy at 6%, Pence at 4%, Tim Scott at 3%, Nikki Haley at 3% and Chris Christie at 1%.
Rumble – ��☠️ $RUM
@rumblevideo
The first 2024 GOP Presidential Debate will be streaming LIVE on Rumble, not YouTube, not Twitch. Watch it on Roku, Samsung, LG, Fire TV, Android, Apple or on any computer! Big tech is losing to new tech, for good reason.
10:29 AM · Aug 22, 2023·
Rumble is airing it WHY?
Who funds Rumble?
Dan Bongino is co-founder & co-owner. I can’t recall who the other guy is but IIRC..it’s sometone who has been supportive of President Trump’s America First agenda.
People who aren’t really paying that much attention to politics will enjoy seeing these stiffs pretend to be worthy of the office of the president. They can watch how boring these cardboard cutouts are and then go compare them to PDJT.
Plus, Team PDJT needs to watch the boring debate so that they can get great soundbites that bury these RINO tools.
No thanks, don’t waste your bandwidth
If you tune in for the slightest second, it’s considered part of their ratings.
‘Stay away, stay FAR away.
Good to know. Thank you for the heads-up.
I agree, it would be a waste to watch a bunch of pompous asses pretend to battle.
Donald J Trump with Tucker, yes.
Nations rise and fall on the backs of a few determined souls.
“…how do Doug Burgum and Asa Hutchinson have enough support to appear on a GOP debate stage?”
Easy! Democrat crossovers. Maybe even the CIA.
Occam would say ‘the RNC”.
I think you nailed it!
Nope, not watching that clown show, & don’t want to help their ratings. Thank you Sundance, I’m sure you’ll have clips or discussion afterwards.
I plan on being tuned in to the livestream video camera that’s watching my grass grow. Let me know if you want an open thread with live comment.
😁
lol
I bet your grass looks better to watch grow than anything those jack wagons have to say
Hutchinson and Burgum both asked for $1, and if you donated $1, you get a $20 gift card. I think Perry Johnson did it too.
Beware of ??? bearing gifts.
??? = wannabe tough guys???
Tricky to pull-off from the < 1% playpen.
Wow!
So … non-grifters completely missed the opportunity to net $57. I can’t imagine the cards were prepaid Visas. More like buy $100 worth of campaign merchandise from their web sites and get free shipping?
That should be illegal.
Those people they discovered in WI who ran the election fraud had all kinds of gift cards. They not only produced phony ballots, they bought votes.
An NGO, ACORN, was doing that back in 07/08 for Barry’s first campaign. They got busted going into jails, halfway houses, etc & putting money on the inmates books in exchange for their “I vote for Barry” ballot.
It was a huge scandal but the RNC, McCain’s campaign, Bush’s DOJ & the DC GOPe elected politicians did ZILCH!
Sundance, several times Safari hasn’t been able to find the site, after logging on to it.
A simple back button restores it, but is this the media gods putting a wrinkle in your place.
Edwin
I’m having issues with my Brave bowser too.. the VPN is cutting it off
Issues like that happen only when I log onto with my VPN on to Truth Social.
But still.
Brave on my pc works fine with AVG VPN on but on my android I have to turn it off to open Brave. Weird, aye?
could be DNS shenanigans. See if it happens on WiFi. Then change you DNS in your iPhone to Cloudflare (or other open DNS server) and see if it happens.

Will that clear the stalking pop up ????
➡️I only get it
every time
I come to CTH
and
going from one thread to an other

and
switching to another page.🥵
-HELP
would be greatly appreciated
Same. I’ve only been coming here for about 2 months… didn’t have that problem until about 7-10 days ago.
Patience, Brave blocks ads, trackers, pop-ups etc. It’s a good search engine also.
I won’t be watching.
I don’t think a livestreaming link necessary…
However, I wouldn’t mind a separate discussion thread because there will be a lot of quick clips or blog posts about it that might be of interest for other reasons (who takes out DeSantis, gaffs, if anyone defends Trump, spin room links from Trump surrogates, etc).
This is the best way to handle it. If we have a space to post, we can handle it ourselves and it will probably be one of the most entertaining threads ever created here.
Faux banned all Trump surrogates from being in the spin room… yesterday…after a couple of “unnamed” campaigns complained.
One guess as to WHO the biggest crybaby is…
They’ve already backtracked, someone posted a TwiX on this thread with Gaetz to that effect.
Sundance,
In response to your question: “…let me know if you want an open thread with livestream in the comment section.” Hmmm, give me some time to think about that one. NO! Why would any Treeper waste their time on such a joke of a , so called, debate, with these clowns on the stage. I’d rather watch: Some of The Best of President Joe Biden | JEFF DUNHAM on youtube.
I can’t remember the last time I was this disinterested in something . Nobody gives a damn about these losers .
Yawn, I’ll be catching Trump and Tucka. Hopefully Tucka asks good tough questions.
not interested in this irrelevant time wasting debate. Not even interested in anything the participants have to say. my only interest is in who is going to be supporting Trump.
Just like the GOP itself, the debates are all a scam.
It’s, Americas Got RINOs bobble head night
Shame on all of these so-called candidates. They all should have backed POTUS Trump.
Sniff…. Sniff… I smell B.S. Many, many piles of steaming B.S.
Those two are part of the debate stage so they can attack Trump…….
No need for a link to the debate. I’d sooner watch a Baby Shark video!
The lollipop guild. I’ll pass.
I WILL NOT be watching it … there is a guy on an Outdoor Hunting Forum that I am a member of who will provide all the (more than enough) pertinent information I can stomach!
Ronna and the RNC took steps to boost the viewer ratings for the debate:
“I am so excited to announce that Rumble will be the RNC’s official streaming partner for the first Republican primary debate,” said Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the RNC
.
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2023/08/22/rumble-holds-exclusive-streaming-rights-to-wednesdays-gop-debate/
Probably explains why RUM stock is down.
Oh, gag me with a whole place setting, not just the spoon.
I really like the fact that Trump decided not to attend the debate.
Another great decision.
You will hear “Trump is right again”.
Was this before or after the spider bite?
Great movie! No ragrats!
I think we need to pivot away from this primary – its over- to now winning out. It looks like another election rigging steal is being worked with a ‘pandemic’. They are fully prepared to crash the economy to keep power.
Eight individual wanna-be candidates will take turns explaining to me why they, rather than any other on that stage, should be the next presidential candidate. That’s the objective, right? OK…..how about staying sober with me and do a little drinking game. Take a small shot every time one of them mentions Trump by name. May God have mercy on your liver.
I was thinking the same thing!
👏👏👏🤣🤣
Each time they say Trump…🍺🍺🍺
And who says Trump the most
times🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
That alone will be Very revealing.
I am not watching…..but
I would stick with popcorn 🍿
though instead of beer.
Unbuttered popcorn is also
handy to throw at TV in lieu
of something that could
damage the screen.
And if you have a dog
who likes popcorn…
makes it even more fun☺️
I won’t need any live stream Sundance, I’ve more important things to do. I’ve got to lance a boil on my Grandmothers hairy arse.
:)!!!
🤣😂
No, don’t bother….
FOX? 😂😂😂😂😂
Not going to watch.
Hope others won’t.
Hope the ratings are dismal.
Not watching.
As for the livestream
open thread-
might be good just so
that those who check
out what is being said
here at the Treehouse
will be aware of what
our thoughts are🤣🤣
I’ll be watching “I Love Lucy ” re-runs.
Watching Wild Kingdom here. Marlin and Jim on another adventure.
In a non-surreal world, it would be obvious who the Republican candidate would be. But we get:
“Who do you want as your candidate? You can have your pick!”
“Trump”
“Other than Trump. Take your pick.”
Spot on Senior citizen! We all know their game, their charade. It’s past time we call them out loud and clear.
I would love to watch, but my toenails need clipping.
Won’t waste a minute on this debate or Fox News.
Going fishing in the new dawn mañana. No time for this clown world. Sorry. Not
Can’t get Rumble on my desktop or my phone. Everything else comes up
Well, looks like Jack Smith scared the security guard at Mar-a-lago sufficiently enough to get him to flip.
Of course, it sets up an obstruction charge.
New: Trump security aide flips, recants grand jury testimony – HotAir
Fake news.
What?
Fox reported it. The kid flipped. You can imagine the pressure on him.
Don’t believe a word you read on ANY Salem Media sites… and that includes GOPe status quo lover Ed Morrissey.
David Strom is another sorry a** punk.
Out of 50 writers, across all sites, there’s about 6-7 writers or sometimes contributors that are worth a damn.
NOT WORTH a subscription price, even at 50% off.
It’ll be a parody of the inconsequential politicians and network sycophants while the most consequential statesman of our time will be interviewed by Tucker Carlson on Twitter. Talk about reversals. The Storm is upon us and Trump is the eye of the storm.
Won’t have time to view the rigged RNC/Faux News food-fight between the also-ran losers,….. will be watching Trump’s interview with Tucker.
DeSantis has one last chance to partially redeem himself by publicly withdrawling from the race and throwing his full support behind Trump. Once that happened, the other contestants would fold and cash in their chips. Trump 2.0 will not be picking a Pence or Nikki Haley as a respectable ‘chaperone’ to keep the Rinos at bay. That worked once with Pence but he won’t be fooled again.
Also, I think the pollsters keep forgetting to put the .00 in front of Asa Hutchinson’s numbers… .001% fixed it.
It will be a playground fight.
I will be watching the Tucker Carlson interview with President Trump, but I wouldn`t mind some highlights of the losers cutting each other up. I expect it will be a Donald Trump “Bash Festival” with the scum moderators getting their jabs in too. If that is the case, then, I am not interested in anything they have to say. I am amazed at how the greatest traitor in American History, MIKE PENCE has any support unless it is all Democrat Communist support or the qualifications were rigged in order to get real losers like Christie, Hutchinson, Haley, Bergum and traitor Pence on the stage to bash President Trump. If they do a good job, maybe one or two of them might be offered a TV spot or some other juicy position.
I received an official email this morning from the Okaloosa County, Florida Republican Party canceling their planned debate watch party due to, and I quote, “…a lack of response and interest.”. Okaloosa County located in the far west-side Florida peninsula area. Lol!
Retired Magistrate here: President Trump will suck all the air out of the debates. The moderators and contestants won’t be able to help themselves; they will all be talking about President Trump.
I expect Ramaswamy to pull ahead of Rhonda, anytime now.
Watch this freak show, no way. I would feel dirty afterwards.
We’ll be watching Tucker and The Boss, but please do run the Debate Live Chat.
We both have decent multi-tasking skills.
And we need a laugh.
TY SD
Not watching Faux nor these members of “The Dark Triad”.
Will read about it later on.
I am tired of being preached at by men in suits who dare to think they know about my dreams (and those of other Americans) and how they THINK we should achieve them. All they have shown is, along with Faux, is how they plan to derail me/us…once again.
Every 4-8 years, these slugs craawl out from under their rocks, with opinions and no proof, of how ‘we’ will succeed under their fake opinion ridden plans that benefit none but their families and friends..
Under Trump, We the People succeeded. Corporations succeeded. People of color were succeeding. The country was turning around.
Until Fox made known that they were in the hen house. They are at the root of the problems that the Thief in Chief has brought to average Americans.
Wow! Well said Aggiegirl
Quite honestly, the only reason, if I were to watch it, would be to make fun of them (which I can do from clips later), as none of these candidonts’ vision for America align with mine. They’re all greedy warmongering neocons
Will this even be remembered 9 months from now?
Go live your best life instead.
Would someone please put the time of the Tucker/Trump event and where to watch it either on TV or better on internet. Thank you. I won’t remember it unless I can get to watch it.
I scoured Twitter, Rumble, Getter, Truth and didn’t find any info. Carlson hasn’t made an announcement – he and team are likely editing feverishly and won’t announce until they have a final edit. If like his other Tucker Tonight interviews on Twitter, they were re-streamed on Rumble. The GOPe debate will be aired Wed from 9pm to 11pm ET on Fox News -Rumble will also stream that broadcast in its partnership with the RNC. However, the Carlson Trump interview stream of the interview would likely be released around the time of the GOPe debate on Wed as counter-programming and re-streamed by a number of independent alt channels on Rumble.
Thank you Totally. I just couldn’t find anything.
I love the fact that Tucker and Trump (TNT) are doing this. Thumbing their noses at Fox. And guess who will have the largest audience?
Tucker for press secretary in the new Trump administration!
Go to Rumble. Search for Tucker Carlson. Choose Tucker on Twitter, and you will find it there.
Just my position, I won’t log onto Twitter to watch Carlson. I don’t want my IP traced. Instead I look to Rumble, it’s pretty secure and doesn’t share IP address w/gov.
You don’t have to log on to Twitter to watch Tucker. Just click on the link to watch it just like you click here!
Besides over 6 million people have watched Tucker’s interview from last night so far. I don’t think anyone will care that you did too!
It was my understanding Elon changed the rules so you had to have a Twitter account to watch Twitter videos or see tweets. I went ahead and created one but I never use it. I just go directly to the Twitter page I want to view.
I believe Mike Crispi (LFA TV) said on his Tuesday Unafraid podcast that LFA TV would be airing the Tucker/Trump interview on their Rumble channel. Crispi and a couple other podcasters from LFA TV are going to the be at the debate just to make fun of all the RINO’s thinking they have a chance over Trump.
Yes it will, for the comedy gold. A party full of ___________.
