The View host urges RNC to drop pledge supporting 2024 nominee for debate stage.
The View Host Calls for End to Pledge Requirement for 2024 Republican Nominee
The View host, Sara Haines, is urging the Republican National Committee (RNC) to reconsider its requirement for candidates to pledge support to the party’s 2024 nominee in order to participate in debates. This request comes as current polls suggest that the nominee could potentially be former President Donald Trump.
Haines’s call for change comes in the wake of Trump’s announcement that he is now a target of special counsel Jack Smith’s grand jury investigation. The View host believes that the RNC should immediately eliminate the pledge requirement, suggesting that if a loyalty pledge is necessary, it should include a caveat specifically excluding Trump. Haines argues that it would be absurd to have someone with such legal issues on their plate as a debate participant.
Concerns and Calls for Action
The RNC recently confirmed that it will not be dropping its debate requirement, despite some Republican candidates expressing their refusal to back Trump. As Trump emerges as an early front-runner, fellow View host Alyssa Farah Griffin is urging other Republicans running in the 2024 presidential primary race to “run to win right now.” Griffin believes that waiting for the resolution of Trump’s legal trials may delay the 2024 presidential election. Additionally, Griffin expresses concern over Senator Tim Scott’s dual role as a presidential candidate and potential vice presidential pick for Trump, emphasizing the importance of Scott standing on his own merits.
Trump’s statement regarding the letter he received from Smith follows a familiar pattern of teasing his potential arrest to the public before any charges are brought against him. This behavior mirrors his actions prior to his indictment in New York on 34 counts related to falsifying business records in connection to an alleged cover-up scheme involving porn star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 campaign. Trump has pleaded not guilty in this case.
Former Texas Rep. Will Hurd Takes a Stand
Former Texas Representative Will Hurd, who is also running for president in 2024, has made it clear that he will not comply with the RNC’s requirement to endorse the 2024 nominee in order to participate in debates. Hurd firmly believes in not deceiving the American people or his party for the sake of gaining a microphone. He emphasizes that allegiance should be to the United States, not to political leaders.
