When Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham suggested he go one-on-one in a debate with 2024 rival Nikki Haley, Florida Gov. Ron Desantis replied, “Count me in!”

“I’d like to see Ron DeSantis versus Nikki Haley. ‘The Angle’ volunteers our show as a platform,” Ingraham said Wednesday. “And the two of them, I think, need to debate it out,

Haley in recent weeks has emerged as a growing threat to DeSantis,

“He [DeSantis] will debate Nikki Haley. He is set to debate Gavin Newsom. And if Trump finds the courage, Ron DeSantis will debate him too,” Griffin continued.

The Hill reached out to Haley’s campaign for further comment.

So much for signing agreements with the RNC to not do other unsanctioned debates...

But then again, breaking agreements, or rules and regulations hasn't seemed to bother desanctimonious.

Laura Ingraham is a repulsive person, and perfect for a primetime Fox timeslot.

The RNC shouldn’t have such rules.

Y’know, I really don’t like the idea of a newsperson acting as a kingmaker.u

The candidates had to sign an agreement if they wanted to participate in the rnc debates.

If desantis didn’t want to follow the rules, he could have not agreed to it, and not gone to any of the rnc debates...

But, as has been shown time after time, desantis acts like rules are for little people, and not desantis.

That is so.

I am just saying handing that level of control over to the RNC is a bad idea—and the RNC shouldn’t make such rules.

Looks like Ronnie and Nikki are threats to each other - and nobody else...since Ronnie opted out of these type debates, it’s just a stunt for publicity....

“if Trump finds the courage”,
What a blowhard. Trump took down 17 debaters in 2016 and half of them were twice what these 2 has bins are. It would be waste of time for Trump to debate . He is better off doing what he does best, talking to the people.

And again . . . this is campaign staff perpetuating paychecks.

They are telling their candidate the party can deny Trump the nomination regardless of primary votes. They can swagger forth self righteously about the horrors of nominating someone in jail.

The campaign staff knows the voters will write-in Trump and they have no chance to win, but it will get them a year of paycheck.

Simply that. Paychecks.

So far Ron has been a total debate dud. Nobody mentions him after the debate.

He is slow.

Because....

We already know desantis lies about things alot.

Now we are getting multiple examples of where desantis agrees to do something..

and he unilaterally breaks the agreement, and does what he wants.

So, desantis is going around campaigning and saying he’s going to do all sorts of things

How do you know which ones he’s lying about, and which ones he’ll never keep?

His feet move along faster in his elevator boots than his brain does.

Maybe dealing with those boots has caused him stress or something.

Reminds me of teen girls stuffing their bras and hoping nobody will find out. LOL

Or AlGore and the tube sock stuffing.
