Tim Scott (R-SC), former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, former Vice President Mike Pence, Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND), and former \u2064New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have all met\u2064 the criteria to qualify \u2062for the debate on\u200b Aug.\u2062 23. When \u200cit comes to\u200d the RNC&#8217;s controversial loyalty pledge, it is less clear\u200c which candidates\u200c have committed. DeSantis, Haley, Ramaswamy, Burgum, and Scott\u2064 have reported that they\u200b have\u200c already signed the document.<\/p>\n<p>While Trump doesn&#8217;t seem inclined to attend, his competitors are preparing for the scenario in \u2064which he does\u200c participate. Several have reportedly been diligently preparing for a debate with Trump for\u2063 weeks, \u2063according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel \u2063expressed her belief that it would be a mistake for Trump not to\u200c attend the upcoming debate. Fox News executives Jay Wallace and Suzanne Scott have also reportedly been actively trying to \u200bconvince the former president \u200dto participate in the\u2064 event,\u200b which \u200dwill be broadcast by the network. The New York Times reported earlier this month on an Aug. 1 dinner between \u200cthe executives\u200d and \u2064Trump at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ \u200bMORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pro-DeSantis super PAC, Never Back Down, posted a video on X, formerly Twitter, mocking ex-President Trump&#8217;s uncertainty about joining the GOP&#8217;s initial primary debate.
