I choose they're shouldn't they were talking about the presidential candidates taking part Donald Trump's big news -- debate.

Sarah Palin says they'll reach a new audience if they do but Karl Rove has a warning.

What the heck -- the Republican candidates -- -- showed up at a debate with a guy who says I may run for president next year is an independent.

I mean -- I think the Republican national chairman out of step in and say we do strongly discourage every candidate.

Prepared in a debate moderated by somebody who who's gonna run for president joining us now.

-- you asked that we deliver Republican national chairman rice previous writes welcome back had to be here.

What do you say to -- -- Well first of all candidates can can do -- -- they wanna do now I respect news Max and I respect mr.

trump we've done events together with mr.

trump summoned and there's no issue there.

I'm still Portland but I would have a concern and and I do have a concern.

They moderator who is talking.

Of running as an independent still.

Being a moderator of the debate so I I'll I would have a whole heartedly that Brett would have an issue that I would understand why candidates would say he -- I don't know if I want to avail myself to a forum.

Where the moderator might be although albeit very slight and again we appreciate.

What mr.

-- and -- has done but.

If if you're still talking about potentially running as an independent candidate and I think that's a problem a -- I think that we malpractice for me as an RNC chairman not.

To to believe that that is an issue so you gonna do something about it.

Well I mean if candidates can do whatever they want -- I mean we don't sanction what they -- -- -- -- -- press conferences say I strongly urge.

You could do you want but I strongly urge you -- and Rick Santorum not to go that think they would listen why wouldn't recommend it.

But I would also say that the candidates that they can do -- they want to -- -- -- from Fox News NBC CBS.

You can I'll issue a release tomorrow and -- you know months from now we're gonna do a debate and we're gonna do it in.

In and Las Vegas, Nevada for the Nevada caucus and it's up to them -- whether they want to go or not but.

I would agree.

That having a person be the moderator and who is still talking about running as an independent.

That's a problem although as a viewer perspective who loves this stuff I would love to see this -- cannot wait for this this form gives -- our good friend and I think that having a successful businessman service in my -- has a lot of value.

But the only the issue here is whether the moderator.

Should be a person who's still batting around the idea of running.

As an -- -- -- and I think that we should give some of these candidates some -- okay now wanna see a little bit of your brand new ad that's out which I know you're excited about.

Look it emphasize the fast and furious controversy.

Operation fast and furious and Obama administration program that -- thousands of the assault weapons fall into the hands of -- Mexican drug cartel guns bounded over a hundred.

Celebrity crime scene.

It sounds like he can't be chosen to making that up the deficit that actually happen you can opinion these are the things that are permeating the Obama administration he's been an absolute and utter disaster to this country.

And the worst part about this is that everything underneath this president has been a disaster in this country Erik -- ought to resign.

Mean who came up but the idea.

That you would send 2000.

Weapons and machine guns down two Mexican drug cartel and then -- And -- that it now use.

Against our own people -- let me ask you you know -- -- you -- the Democrats say well -- started really with operation wide receiver -- Arizona.

But -- -- -- ever gonna go back thirty year old -- -- Iran -- what about this sort but listen we're live and in today's world.

This president promised this country to be different kind of leader and what he's brought us is everything.

The opposite of what he promised this country he is the great divider.

And everything he's touched.

So far as president has turned out to be a disaster he's one of the busy skies an American happy to do it -- previous in New York raising money raising awareness thanks so much for -- as anybody and a big difference what receiver of course is they told the Mexican government -- -- see we're gonna try this and -- did its one small scale.

And they ended and violence are much of giants -- -- -- Packers -- with the sorry your audio is being cut your.

No one heard that -- Chris Wallace ten dollars he's gonna get it was a good game right hey -- for you paid.
