    Republicans don’t watch the debates, and literally cheered their candidates for ducking debates with democrats last election.

    If they did watch debates, they would realize their candidates had zero platform worth voting for. The ones that do watch them are there for the drama, which this move also satisfies.

      Ehh. Trump did terrible in the 2020 debates(although Pence did okay)- but the CNN townhall reflected well on him.
