SIMI VALLEY, California – Donald Trump's Republican rivals clashed at a chaotic presidential debate on Wednesday , levelling attacks at the absent former president, Democratic President Joe Biden and one another over issues from China to immigration to the economy.
"He should be on this stage tonight," DeSantis said, drawing applause from the audience at the Ronald Reagan presidential library in Simi Valley, California. "He owes it to you to defend his record." Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee for the November 2024 election, was also a frequent target for the Republican candidates, who castigated his handling of the economy and the southern border with Mexico.
In the debate's final segment, moderator Dana Perino asserted that Trump's nomination was inevitable as long as the field remained fractured among multiple candidates.Minutes before the debate kicked off, Trump delivered a speech to autoworkers in the battleground state of Michigan, inserting himself into a national dispute between striking workers and the country's leading automakers a day after Biden joined a union picket line.
With less than four months until Iowa's first-in-the-nation Republican nominating contest, Trump's rivals are running short on time to weaken his commanding hold on the primary campaign.
