Even though Donald Trump won’t be in attendance for the first Republican primary debate for the nomination for president of the United States of America on Wednesday, he still intends to utilize a pre-recorded interview to deflect attention away from the event.
The Republican candidates, including billionaire Vivek Ramaswamay and former Vice President Mike Pence, will attempt to establish themselves as legitimate alternatives to Donald Trump in the Milwaukee debate, where the primary attention will be on Trump’s closest opponent, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Trump said this week that he will not be attending the debate to face Democratic Vice President Joe Biden since he had a significant lead in the race for the Republican nomination for president. Instead, he consented to an interview with Tucker Carlson, a former anchor on Fox News, which will air at 9 p.m. Eastern Time (GMT 0100), just as the debate is about to begin and may cause viewers to get distracted.
According to campaign strategists and consultants, participants will launch an onslaught of attacks on DeSantis in a bid to oust him from his position as Trump’s chief rival. After suffering a significant dip in the polls over the summer, which has left him more than 30 points farther behind Trump, DeSantis is now thought to be in a precarious position.
