Donald Trump may finally attend a GOP primary debate after the Secret Service was spotted scoping out the Alabama venue where the latest showdown will take place next month, RadarOnline.com has learned.
In a surprising development to come after the former president blew off the three previous GOP primary debates, Trump may attend the next debate in Tuscaloosa, Alabama on December 6.
According to sources familiar with the matter, Secret Service agents were spotted scoping out the venue at the University of Alabama on the same day that NewsNation announced it would be hosting the next debate.
Insiders told TMZ that several Secret Service agents visited the Moody Music Building Concert Hall on November 9 and “walked the premises both inside and out” – suggesting the embattled ex-president may have decided to make an appearance.
Also interesting is the fact that ex-Fox News host Megyn Kelly will sit in as one of the three moderators overseeing the GOP primary debate in Alabama on December 6.
Trump and Kelly engaged in an infamous sparring match during another GOP primary debate back in 2015, and the pair may come head-to-head once again should the embattled ex-president attend the next Republican showdown.

I’d like to see Trump show up in the post-debate Spin Room.
WHy?
I hope not!
MK likes him now. She’s a warrior against the trans erasing real women.
HOW ABOUT HIS OWN RALLY THE NIGHT PRIOR???
“MK likes him now. She’s a warrior against the trans erasing real women.”
Yeah, too bad she was NOT smart enough to NOT team up with Chris Wallace and Bret Teeth to sandbag conservative candidates in favor of moderate-liberal candidates in both 2012 and 2016.
Any of the other candidates have Secret Service protection?
They’re dreaming, IMHO.
Maybe he’ll just be in the audience
Have you learned nothing, President Trump?

This is just a person speculating. It doesn’t say he is attending.
I can’t imagine why he would waste his time with these bush leaguers
That woe be hilarious
“Any of the other candidates have Secret Service protection?”
In regard to presidential campaign, the Secret Service is authorized by law (18 United States Code § 3056) to protect: Major presidential and vice presidential candidates and their spouses within 120 days of a general presidential election.
So no, not federal as we are outside the 120. But they will most likely have hired private protection either they are paying for or at some level the DNC might be fronting. They all look alike anyway...dark glasses and suits unless in temps. Many have ear pieces, you can see them.

Put on your thinking caps. The viewership has been pathetic. Trump shows up and ratings go through the roof. The RNC has to take notice. The limp dik media has to acknowledge it. He gets to take cheap shots at the posers who have no business being on stage.
Trump is a showman and a promoter. He will show up sooner or later.
EC
Does Obama have a fleet of cars with SS protecting him like Trump does? It’s like he’s still president.
He’ll be a damfool if he does.
Article is probably trying to create some buzz, that’s all.

My thoughts went along the same lines. That and it’s not a leftist moderator debate.
