What To Expect at the 4th GOP Presidential Debate

Johanna Maska

Dec 03, 2023

This week, Republican presidential candidates will take the stage at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa for the 4th primary debate hosted by NewsNation. The front runner in the race, Donald Trump is expected to skip the debate to host a fundraiser in Florida. For a preview of what to expect, Johanna Maska speaks with fellow NewsNation contributor Mick Mulvaney, former South Carolina Congressman and acting White House Chief of Staff in the Trump administration. They discuss Nikki Haley's rise in the polls, the party's factions she'll have to win over to beat Donald Trump, and whether Trump owes it to the voters to show up. They also share highlights from the recent debate between Ron DeSantis and Gavin Newsom.
