Trump says may skip first Republican debate, hold rival event
WASHINGTON – Former US president Donald Trump said he might not participate in the Republican Party’s first 2024 election primary debate in August and may hold an alternative event, citing his lead in opinion polls and what he claims is the hosting network’s bias against him.
The debate will be the first chance for voters to see the Republican presidential candidates square off against one another. “Why would I give them time to make statements? Why would I do that when I’m leading them by 50 points and 60 points,” Trump said. A Reuters/Ipsos poll earlier in June showed that some 43 per cent of self-identified Republicans said Trump was their preferred candidate, compared with 22 per cent who picked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Mr Christie was at 2 per cent.Mr Christie, a former Trump ally who is now one of his fiercest critics, has accused the former president of being afraid to join the debates out of fear of losing his lead in the race.
