Trump skips Fox News debate, plans Tucker Carlson interview
Former President Donald Trump has canceled his plans to participate in a Fox News debate for Republican presidential candidates, opting instead to sit down for an interview with Tucker Carlson.
The debate was scheduled to take place on August 26 in Miami, Florida. However, Trump’s team reportedly informed Fox News on Wednesday that he would not be participating.
Trump’s decision to skip the debate is a surprise, as he has been a frequent guest on Fox News and has praised Carlson in the past. However, it is possible that Trump is concerned about the potential for negative coverage of his campaign if he participates in the debate.
Trump’s decision to sit down for an interview with Carlson is also a surprise, as Carlson has been a vocal critic of Trump in the past. However, it is possible that Trump is hoping to use the interview to get his message out to his supporters.
