Donald Trump complains that Fox News – a debate sponsor – has ignored his recent campaign events.

“You don’t show our attack plans on Iran to people,” said U.S. Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska.

Chris Christie and other candidates need debates to draw contrasts with Trump, the Republican Party’s current 2024 frontrunner.

Trump did not endorse any specific anti-abortion legislation, but said “there of course remains a vital role for the federal government.”

Most 2024 Republican candidates had been reluctant to go after Trump over the documents indictment; that is changing by the day.

Appealing to the court of voter opinion over his second indictment, Trump made clear that he will make the charges a central park of his campaign.

A Trump return to the presidency will only be about “settling scores” rather than helping the American people, Christie told a CNN town hall.

There has never been a candidate like the under-indictment former president who is still seeking another term in the White House in 2024.

Trump went on lengthy and error-filled diatribes about indictments, trials and pending investigations in Washington, D.C., New York City, and Atlanta.

Maintaining his defense of the newly indicted Donald Trump, former vice president Mike Pence denounced the Justice Department for its action.
