Seven candidates have qualified for a spot on the stage: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, former Vice President Mike Pence, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum. Former President Donald Trump, the current front-runner, has opted again to skip the event.

It’s for quickly reading what’s going on without listening to a lot of argle bargle.

And nobody cared, other than for laughing at them as they try to pretend they are relevant.

Not bothering to watch. I won't be voting for any of them anyway.

The ONLY person I will be campaigning for is Donald Trump.

The ankle biters gather to audition for a job in Trump’s next administration. 😁

Yep. The seven people on that stage are either campaigning for VP or are ghoulishly hoping that something bad will happen to Trump.

I have no interest in any of them.

LoL Trump made a comment tonight the debate is for VP. He then asked if anyone saw VP in that stage and then confirmed he didn’t.

Fat piece of garbage.

Food addiction is so obvious, and signals underlying mental health issues.

Who would even consider voting for him????

“What is this thread for?

For certain it is not for VP but all of them think so. Except RDS, he burned his bridge months ago.

That is how/why he gets paid. The media has primarily made “debates” all about themselves. It is an outdated format with too many people on stage and even the 1 on 1 debates at the end are skewed by the media”tors”.

I have no interest in watching people talk over one another. It is a $hit show. If you want to learn about a candidate I think a good relaxed 1 on 1 interview on a podcast or other medium with no yelling and interruptions or efforts to score points is the best way to do it.

Trump was wise to skip this circus.
