Will Trump Be at the Third Republican Debate?
As with the first two debates, GOP frontrunner and former president Donald Trump will be absent from tonight’s event. Instead of attending the debate, Trump is expected to host a rally at the Ted Hendricks Stadium in Hialeah, Florida that starts at 7 p.m. ET. Trump made a similar move during the last two debates, streaming an interview with Tucker Carlson during the first debate and holding a rally with non-union autoworkers in Michigan during the second debate.
