Huckabee and Santorum did NOT skip the debate. They meandered over to Trumps event after the undercard debates.
They knew where the audience was going to be and wanted to soak up a little face time on Trumps dime.
If they were smart, they would have also told FOX to “shove it” and skipped the debate.
“Trump and Santorum did NOT skip the debate.”
True and I should have been clearer. By attending Trump’s event AS WELL at least they showed some level of solidarity and that they are not entirely in the media’s pocket.
My main point was that they all should have skipped it, it’s a circus and set up.
