The Republican Party through its silence and participation supports the attempt to overthrow the elected government on January Sixth.
A majority of Republicans in the House and fourteen Republican Senators refused to certify the Electoral College results on January six, 2021.
Today, some Republican lawmakers are outspoken in their support of Donald Trump who continues to preach the election was stolen from him, which is the basis for the attempted coup. Others say nothing. The prefer not talking about the leader of their party. Their support for Trump is in their acquiescence.
So it is not surprising that the RNC will no longer participate in Presidential debates. They would be far too embarrassing and revealing.
The Times reports, "The Republican National Committee is preparing to change its rules to require presidential candidates seeking the party’s nomination to sign a pledge to not participate in any debates sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates.
"Republican committee officials alerted the debate commission to their plans in a letter sent on Thursday, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times. If the change goes forward, it would be one of the most substantial shifts in how presidential and vice-presidential debates have been conducted since the commission began organizing debates more than 30 years ago.
"The change requiring candidates to refuse participation in the commission’s debates is to be voted on at the R.N.C. winter meeting in Salt Lake City in February."
