"Trump Opts for Fox Town Hall Over GOP Debate Ahead of Iowa Caucuses"

Former President Donald Trump is set to skip the upcoming Republican presidential primary debate in Iowa, opting instead to host a live town hall on Fox News. This marks the fifth debate Trump has avoided, despite leading in early state polls. The CNN-hosted debate at Drake University will go on without him, with only a few candidates meeting the qualifications to participate. Trump's absence has been criticized by fellow candidates, while another candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy, plans to hold a competing event the same night. CNN is also scheduled to host another debate in New Hampshire, which, like the Iowa debate, is not sanctioned by the Republican National Committee.

"Vivek Ramaswamy Slams CNN for Exclusion from Iowa Debate, Alleges Favoritism"

Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican presidential candidate, criticized CNN for debate qualification criteria that may exclude him due to low polling numbers. He accused the network of trying to narrow the debate and favor certain candidates like Nikki Haley. Ramaswamy plans to join a competing event with Tim Pool instead. The debate requires candidates to have at least 10% in three polls, which Ramaswamy has not achieved. Meanwhile, Donald Trump, leading in the polls, plans to skip primary debates and will attend a Fox News town hall simultaneously with the CNN debate. Nikki Haley has challenged Trump to participate in the Iowa debate.
