Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, Chris Christie and Tim Scott face off at the third Republican presidential debate, in Miami, Florida, while Trump holds a rally miles away.
Nikki Haley gave as good as she got at the third Republican presidential primary debate - on a slimmed down stage during a showdown full of insults intertwined with serious policy discussions.
The debate started with Trump in the cross-hairs, as the former president skipped his third straight showdown with his rivals. 'He should explain why he didn't have Mexico pay for the border wall. He should explain why he racked up so much debt. He should explain why he didn't drain the swamp,' DeSantis emphasized as he jabbed at Trump. And Haley spotlighted that the former president 'put us $8 trillion in debt, and our kids are never gonna forgive us for that.
