Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis speaks at a campaign event, Sept. 29, 2023, in Long Beach, Calif.
The party threatened to exclude the two from all future debates, including the third, set for Miami on Nov. 8, if they participated with the original format of the event. The DeSantis campaign's appeal to the national party comes as key advisers to Trump, who has declined to attend the debates so far, on Monday urged the RNC in a statement to "put an end" to any further primary debates and focus their resources on the general election, likely to be against President Joe Biden, the heavy favorite to become the Democratic nominee.
