With Donald Trump boycotting and viewership falling off, some Republican National Committee members are starting to question whether the GOP’s primary debates should continue in their current format at all.

“You can’t put your head in the sand and pretend these debates are going to result in someone other than Donald Trump getting the nomination,” said Patti Lyman, the RNC’s national committeewoman from Virginia, who called the debates “embarrassing” and said they “reflected very poorly on our party.”

Louis Gurvich, chair of the Republican Party of Louisiana, said the debates “have demeaned every candidate who participated in them,” while Roger Villere, Louisiana’s national committeeman, said he didn’t “really see what we’re gaining from having a debate without having the main participant.”
