RNC Chair Ronna Romney McDaniel Will See Debate Commission IN HELL!

[Zorro]

Here we go again. The RNC is whining about debates and threatening to boycott them forever. It's kind of a thing they've been doing for years now. This seems to be the culmination of a back-and-forth that started back in the extremely timely time of last summer. And it's definitely something we need to be thinking about in ... *checks watch* ... January of 2022.

Ronna Willard Mittens Mormonbottoms Romney McDaniel — it's important to type the whole name Jesus gave her — has written a NASTYGRAM to the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) telling them this is their last and final warning. If they don't change all the rules to make it easier for Republicans to c̶h̶e̶a̶t̶ win at debates, and if they don't completely skullfuck reality to the point that they accept Republicans' insistence that completely normal moderators are BIASSSSSSSSS, then the RNC will simply ban all future Republican candidates from participating in debates put on by the CPD.

And if that means there are no debates — because obviously Democrats are not going to agree to debate in the GOP's preferred venue for Democrats, which is with their heads being held under the water in Tucker Carlson's servant toilets — well then guess there won't be any debates.

"So long as the CPD appears intent on stonewalling the meaningful reforms necessary to restore its credibility with the Republican Party as a fair and nonpartisan actor, the RNC will take every step to ensure that future Republican presidential nominees are given that opportunity elsewhere," RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel wrote in a letter Thursday to Frank Fahrenkopf and Kenneth Wollack, co-chairs of the debate commission.

Uh huh.

The letter is so stupid, y'all. It's full of demands, which the RNC frames as the CPD's "failures," which include moving at least one of the debates back to before early voting starts, and making sure not to have any moderators who are BIASSSSS. (Remember the list of suggestions the Trump campaign submitted in 2020? Literally the stupidest rightwing pundits alive, like Hugh Hewitt and Maria Bartiromo. You betcha.)

The letter also whines that the CPD's board is no longer nonpartisan, because so many of them "publicly disparag[ed]" Trump. They never will understand that if you nominate the World's Stupidest Hitler to be your nominee, respectable Americans of all political persuasions are probably gonna disparage that guy.

Wonkette's Evan Hurst certainly has a way with words...

1. Jesus had a mean way with words!

2. Fine. Let your candidate stay home.

Clearly, Republicans have no interest in actually winning elections.

3. R-W-M-M-R-M

Perfect!

But how the hell do you monogram with those initials??

4. Aw, somebody really wanted to change the subject today, to suck up all the oxygen in the room

and get complete attention with some quality whining. Somebody was hoping to gin up some serious anger and angst for at least one news cycle. Oh, the failure has gotta hurt. Turns out today is the day a SCOTUS decision made headlines, and also the day the first DOJ sedition charges dropped, so nobody really cares. Tough noogies, Ronna. Also, if the Republican party isn't adult enough to send a candidate who can follow the same basic rules (more or less) that have been around for decades, well... fine, then! Don't send anybody. Since your party has no platform, it's not like your candidate would have anything coherent to say anyway.

It's hilarious that this was crafted and timed and... oh, dear. Never mind! 😆
