Donald Trump is now telling people close to him that he may skip the early Republican primary debates because he doesn’t want to outnumber his opponents.
Mr Trump has made it clear in recent weeks, in private comments to aides and confidants, that he does not want to breathe a life of sharing the platform with his Republican rivals. Mr. Trump led his closest rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, by about 30 percent in recent polls. All other contestants are polling in single digits.
“I’m up on a lot of points,” said one aide who spoke to Mr. Trump.
It wasn’t enough that Trump tried to destroy democracy after losing the 2020 election. He moved to try to destroy the presidential primary process in the Republican Party.
Trump has many reasons for not showing up or wanting to attend a Republican primary debate. Current criminal charges in Manhattan, E.Jane Carroll’s civil rape trial, additional criminal charges against him in federal and Georgia. Trump does not want to compete on his record.
Donald Trump is currently leading in the Republican primaries, but Ron DeSantis will do well when he enters the race.
Trump is furious with Fox News and doesn’t want to give them any ratings for a full primary debate.
Reading between the lines, it seems that Trump does not want to give the position to him and work for him. If he follows his plan to skip debates, the former president will look weak.
Trump is digging the hole and dragging the Republican Party down the drain.
