Republican presidential candidates vying to be the leading alternative to front-runner Donald Trump opened the first Republican primary debate Wednesday night with broadsides criticizing President Joe Biden’s handling of the economy and what they consider to be excessive government spending.
The former president wasn’t on stage in Milwaukee, choosing to skip the primetime event. But he was a central figure nonetheless, with Fox News moderators Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum expected to press his rivals to articulate how they would differ in style and substance from Trump, who holds a commanding early lead in the race.
The Republican National Committee had set polling and donor thresholds and required participants to sign a loyalty pledge in order to qualify.Advertisement “I’m going to have all these people screaming at me, shouting questions at me, all of which I love answering, I love doing. But it doesn’t make sense to do them so I’m taking a pass,” he said.
“In fact, tonight’s Republican undercard event really shouldn’t even be called a debate, but rather an audition to be a part of President Trump’s team in his second term,” he quipped.In his absence, DeSantis’ campaign had prepared for the Florida governor to be the debate’s top target as the front-runner on stage.
