RNC Nixes Christian Lunch Forum

Don't ask why Normies laugh at "official Republican" pronouncements and rules.  This kind of "Mommy, May I?" crap is the answer:

Republican presidential candidates could be barred from participating in future debates if they attend a Thanksgiving forum hosted by an Iowa Christian organization, according to a warning from the Republican National Committee. ...

...“It has come to the attention of the RNC Counsel’s Office that several Republican presidential candidates have been invited to participate in an open-press event in Iowa in November at which they would ‘gather around the table to have a moderated, friendly, and open discussion about the issues.’ In other words, a debate,” the RNC wrote in a letter to candidates on Oct. 28, according to RealClearPolitics.

“Accordingly, please be advised that any Republican presidential candidate who participates in this or other similar events will be deemed to have violated this pledge and will be disqualified from taking part in any future RNC-sanctioned presidential primary debates,” the letter adds....

Trump, DeSantis, Haley, Ramaswamy, and Scott are invited.

Trump don't care.

DeSantis intends to show up, by the way.
