Bloomberg News reports:
Republican frontrunner Donald Trump said he would announce next week whether he would attend the first GOP presidential debate, but insisted he would not sign a required pledge to support the party’s nominee.
“I have a problem with the debate for another reason. I wouldn’t sign the pledge,” Trump told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling in an interview broadcast on Wednesday night. “I can name three or four people that I wouldn’t support for president,” he said, but then declining to name them. “So right there that’s a problem.”
In the Newsmax interview, Trump initially said he had already decided about the debate and would share that decision next week. But later he suggested he still had to make a decision, adding “I haven’t totally ruled it out.”
