The 2024 GOP primary debate series is a clown show of knuckleheads following the marching orders of the billionaire donors who fund them. The RNC is the vessel for the illusion of choice game, orchestrated by the same donors. Watching the remaining candidates try and qualify to be the first loser is, well, pathetic really.
Into this game of nonsense, the RNC delivers the next round of pretentious moderators for the RNC debate in Miami. I mean, if you are hosting a Republican debate, one might think the RNC would want Republicans as moderators. Then again, in the era of the professional Uniparty, there’s not much difference. Condescending pontificating pustule of pomposity, Hugh Hewitt, will rest atop his familiar high horse. You couldn’t pay me to watch this one.
WASHINGTON – NBC’s Lester Holt and Kristen Welker are set to moderate the third Republican primary debate alongside morning talk show host Hugh Hewitt, NBC announced on Wednesday.
The three will take the stage at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami on Nov. 8, as the remaining GOP presidential hopefuls — those who can qualify — push to break away from the pack in the polls.
So far, five candidates have hit the Republican National Committee’s increasingly stringent requirements to make it onto the debate stage. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have all qualified, as has the current frontrunner, former President Donald Trump — who is set to again skip the debate in favor of his own rally in nearby Hialeah, Fla.
Former Vice President Mike Pence, meanwhile, has met the polling requirements but still needs to hit the 70,000-donor mark. Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has yet to hit either threshold, according to POLITCO’s analysis, though his campaign has claimed he has met the polling requirements. (read more)
Listening to Victor Davis Hanson and Caroline Glick today. Watch it on YT if you haven’t. VDH is concerned they’re going to unjustly jail Trump. It’s infuriating what lies and deception law fare and the Dems are capable of. It’s not just Trump they’re after, it’s God fearing, country loving patriots. Preaching to the choir, I know. It will be interesting to see what our reaction will be if and when it happens. Prayers for Trump.
Of course they’re going to jail President Trump, absolutely nothing to stop them from doing that.
The reaction ? Highest number of comments ever.
Well, there are actually quite a few things stopping them, and some good reasons to question that being their goal.
Do they rescind or revoke the Law, which mandates lifetime Secret Service Protection for every former POTUS?
Do they give PDJT and his SS detail their own cell block?
Beyond that, there IS the reaction, and not just in “the street”; many who are not Supporters of PDJT have publically criticised this persecution campaign, and his support has only grown, with an effect like martyerdom; incarcerating him, were it possible/practical would only increase his popularity.
I will concede that his enemies ARE clinically insane, and one of the hallmark behaviors of the insane is doing and saying things which are not in their own interests, however.
Still, I think its a very remote possibility,..
I sure hope you’re correct, Dutchman. I still have this question though, When do We The People say “we’ve had enough?
Right!?
Apparently, STOLEN ELECTIONS are not enough to illicit a real response. 🤷♂️
Dutchman, you’re spot on . . . then there is the issue of the missing crime. Trump is immune for actions while president and the documents case has no foundation. What’s left to jail him on? For those unaware, Trump has been sitting in the catbird seat all along so grab your popcorn and watch, it’s about to get interesting.

Exactly!!! 👍
Just like Sundance points out lawfare has no basis in any reality but is used to influence public opinion or a narrative!!!🤔
Oh, it has influenced public opinion – just not in the direction they were hoping. The question is whether a measure of sanity and/or fear of the huge blowback will catch up to them before they go nuclear and actually try to throw DJT in jail.
No Guns.
No pitchforks and torches.
No screaming and vandalism in the streets (That will be BLM, ANTIFA, and the FBI).
Just stay home and don’t go to work, don’t go the Mall, and DON’T BUY ANYTHING for a couple of weeks, and the Oligarchs will get the message.
They want a retail-based economy, where nobody builds anything, we import everything from least cost labor countries, and everyone works in retail?
Shut down Retail.
What if Black Friday this year stays Really, REALLY Red?
Boycott everything.
Slow down.
Malicious compliance.
Do not comply, do not consent.
Become ungovernable.
Tell your friends, all the cool kids are doing it.
Gee. I thought the prisons were full. Trump should hang out in Illinois where there’s no cash bail and if he’s to be arrested would not be jailed./sarcasm.
The streets of the U.S. would be flowing with patriotic Americans.
As they would know their country was over if they just sat on their asses.
Cheers!
MAGA vs HAMAS!
That is what all the military age imports are for. So the bureaucrats don’t have to get their hands dirty.
They make up the crimes, they will make up a sentence. They hope we react so they can declare Martial Law. We already have it, we just don’t have the armored vehicles out yet.
If they do go ahead and do this there is no way I would vote for plan B. The thought would never even cross my mind.
VDH is wrong about 1/2 the time,…he still doesn’t get it, that RINOS want to kill us, andcan not be negotiated with, just like Dems, Hamas, Globullusts, etc.
I would NOT give a lot if credence to his prognostications, and yes I watched the same podcast today, as well.
VDH is on one of the DeSantis Election Groups. Dutchman is spot on. VDH is excellent in explaining history. When it comes to present day, VDH becomes a professor. He pretends and takes a step back.
Bad juju thats whats in store for the dufus state.
that has been the thought for a few years now
I pray every day for the health, strength, safety for PRESIDENT TRUMP, and for the opportunity for PDJT to lead this once great nation again, before we are fully engaged in WWIII.
IMESHO, the Fourth Branch, the Swamp, and the Deep State are so AFRAID of PDJT for obvious reasons. I believe that those LOSERS are pushing asinine attacks against PDJT in an attempt to promote irrational acts of violence, which could be used for their benefit, just like the J6 travesty. I hope that Speaker Johnson can take action to stop the biased, delusional, and destructive attacks against PDJT.
I will still only vote for Trump, if that happens. If the GOP isn’t willing to fight for him, then to hell with that party.
Go research what happened in France in 1789 over a similar type of situation! Me personally wouldn’t really care if a few Oligarchs got there heads lopped off!!!🤯
The 3rd… really? Already?
Wait, there’ve already been two?
Are TV viewing audiences so low that the networks are willing to televise anything??? IMESHO, can they maybe get some street people to moderate so that we can get some Diverse, Equitable, and Inclusive comments??? That might have more value. IMESHO, since the RNC is such a bad joke, will that broadcast fall into the “comedy” category???
Ronna has been exposed just like all the other slime balls that only care about the cash on the side from the mega donors. None of them even fake caring about the voters any more. But then again, they aren’t worried about votes because they’re in on the game and know the “right” outcome.
She needs another cosmetic upgrade
I would like an opinion poll inquiring about what percentage of the population feel that Congress and the pols really represent the public’s interests anymore. Isn’t the approval rating for “gubermint” close to a single digit number?
Has Willard’s niece booked Pence’s flea for this spectacular event ?
what a frigging joke
“I’ll take ‘Three Losers and a Baby’ for $300 trillion, Alex!”
I’m not watching this unless there is pie throwing and a dunk tank.
When I tune into a clown show, I expect to see a carnival.
I’d tune in for the pie-throwing. What’s the over/under on Christie eating more than he throws?
.5, he won’t be able to help himself on the first one.
There is nothing funnier than a good pie in the face! It never gets old.
2024 You Decide:
Is that the new dress code for the Senate that was recently discussed???
A native born Citizen is different from a natural born citizen. The latter is a anchor baby, like Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz. Ie, someone born to parents who are not both citizens. Obama was a natural born citizen as his father was not a US citizen.
The US Supreme Court ruled three times in the 19th century that a natural born citizen is someone born to two citizen parents within US territory or control.
You’re mixing up your terms here.
Natural Born Citizen is indeed the necessary precondition to eligibility to become President.
Neither Haley, nor Ramalamadingdong, nor Obama are eligible.
The challenge is to see if they can get the lowest ratings, for a POTUS debate, in history.
How LOW can you GO?
“increasingly stringent requirements,.. ” how can they say that with a straight face?
I recall for MANY years, goung back to when the League of Women voters set up the debates, that the requirement was polling at least 20% in National polls, conducted just before the debates.
Those setting up the debates maintained anyone below that was not “viable” and shouldn’t clutter up the debate stage.
Not one of these can’t get out of the starting blocks ‘candidates’ is close to 20%.
So desperate, so irrelevant, so clueless ,…
So Uniparty transparent.
I’ll never frget Kristen Welker interjecting, “I want to stay on the issue of race,” as Trump was destroying Biden’s brag about his own character being sterling. Trump was talking about Hunter’s laptop and Biden’s bribes and all Welker wanted to talk about was race because of course she did.
3 new reasons to not watch.
And don’t forget the Kebler Elves in the debate floor – Niki, meatball, Judas, Krispy, etc.
Hadn’t watched one. Not starting now.
Reruns of MASH are better.
They always all embarrass themselves – and don’t care.
It’s painful to watch.
“You’re just competing for first-loser!” is my favorite line in the movie THE GUARDIAN.
I’ve been saying for months these people are doing just that, so let me thank Sundance for putting that in a title. Made my day!
I think President Trump should do the Joe Rogan interview this time.
I guess Whoopi Goldberg, Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann weren’t available to accept the gig. 0.0
Hughie Hewitt was a diehard McCainiac. His politics haven’t changed.
Who is funding Chris Christy, who is backing him so that he meets the requirements? I have not heard one American say I want Chris Christy for President?
So ya see, what happened was that Christy has become so associated with Krispy Kreme that he has been able to get a lot of donations from people who like their donuts. If those people ever find out he’s a Dunkin kinda guy it will end.
The only thing that characterizes the three is “Dumb and Dumbers.”
The RNC and republicants once again clearly demonstrating how they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. RNC and DNC have united to defeat MAGA. Uniparty in action.
“Good morning America. Bonjour/hi Canada. I’m a RINO windbag.”
I’m not even afraid to admit I’ve watch not any of these debates. It’s just posturing and shadow boxing.
Imagine having an ego so big that you refuse reality. Like vultures circling over the body “hoping” it will die.
I would need to take a 5 gal pail of Relief Factor to watch Hewitt
No upside to this…only downside…
Sorry Sundance, I read the headline and could NOT force myself to read the article.
Hugh Hewitt (not to mention the two Democrats) was paid by Big Pharma or at least in agreement with his Salem Radio masters to push and push the clot shot (and yes, condescendingly so, as in “You rubes aren’t smart enough to make your own decisions.”) $100 says not one Loser mentions this during the debate. Not even RJKjr has since the moderators announcement.
Why not?
So the Republican SWAMP party members are being grilled by Corrupt democrat fake media people. The RNC is in lock step with everything we despise of Government. Nothing new for these suck ups to the evil in this Government. MAGA 🇺🇸 President Trump .
Wow, that’s some threesome. Lester; “I think it’s become clear that fairness is overrated … the idea that we should always give two sides equal weight and merit does not reflect the world we find ourselves in,”. Seems like a very questionable choice. And I’m surprised Hugh Hewitt’s head will fit in the same room with all of them. He’s the quintessential RINO.
“You couldn’t pay me to watch this one.”
If you don’t, then who is going to lance this boil on the public’s butt?
What they are doing to President Trump in New York is why it is as illegal to rob banks in this country.
It’s not the robbers money.
Please get rid of Ronna. She’s a loser for us and the Republican party.
Another reason I won’t watch the debates. Holt was obviously biased last time,and I don’t expect that will.change. Why can’t the RNC choose someone like Catherine Herridge?
Hewitt is a supreme jagoff.
Does any relational person really care about the RNC, ruina rummy, and the “debates”?? PRESIDENT TRUMP is the only viable candidate, and I certainly don’t want to listen to the lesser dolts promulgating the asinie MSM talking points as “moderators”.
Have not wasted my time with the previous two debates, there is no reason to watch this one either.
Its kind of amazing that the GOP is willing to continue with this pathetic sh!tshow. All of these people look worse the more you hear from them. You’d think the GOP would want to hide how grotesque it has become. But NOPE!
Let’s play a game. Guess the NBC questions to the selfish 3rd tier losers showing up in Miami.
I submit my NBC question:
“Please raise your hand if you will condemn any candidate who wrongly states the 2020 election of President Biden was fraudulent, and will you accept the results of the 2024 election no matter who wins?”
Anyone at the CTH want to bet me that these questions in any form aren’t preloaded and asked?
What a waste of time…for them…and anybody that watches. And Ronna…what a fricking disgrace! I can’t stand what the establishment repubs are and what they think of us! They do not and never will get a penny from me…or my attention!
Why is the GOP such a complete Joke? Nobody is watching these debates, and the next one will have lower ratings than the last one. Who wants to see Christie attack Trump for the 1000th time? Or watch Nikki Haley screech insults at Mr. V? Or hear DeSantis drone on and give us platitudes?
And who ever cared about Pence or Govenor Bumstead?
Its scary how after 7 years of Trump, no one has stepped up to fill his shoes. And that without Trump, the GOP stands for nothing and couldn’t win anything of importance. Prior to Trump, the GOP were nothing more than the “Loyal Opposition” rubberstamping the D’s agenda. And they still are.
Isn’t it funny how no one in the GOP is interested in thinking ahead? The elephant in the room is “What if Trump is put in jail”? So, what happens then? WHo’s our 2nd choice? Is this what the clown show debate is about, who’ll replace Trump if the Uniparty gets their way?
If Trump gets nominated, he’d better choose a VP who is even more hated by GOPe than himself. Someone like Lake or Palin. Or Hawley. That way if they impeach or destroy him, they get someone just as bad.
If Trump becomes the official republican candidate for president can they still go after him with all these lawsuits, or does it stop?
Haven’t watched any of these clown show events, and won’t watch this one either. My mind is made up and there’s no turning it around.
Where is the GAG order when y9u need one? These two democrats make everyone VOMIT!
Yeah, Sundance isn’t liberal…hahaha…..
Always avoid alliteration
/s
Just looking at those interrogators make me cringe. HH is nothing but a parrot for the establishment.
Welker is a piece of work. She is definitely the icing on the left wing cake
Try them! Convict them of treason! Hang them by the neck until dead! Do you hear us yet, Ms. McDaniel? Better listen and shape up!
The RNC is a joke. I wouldn’t give one damn dime to that ridiculous organization.
