Former United States President, Donald Trump, has been criticized by two presidential hopefuls for skipping the second 2024 primary debate.
Seven republican candidates battled out at the party’s second presidential debate in California on Wednesday.
“Donald Trump is missing in action. He should be on this stage tonight. He owes it to you to defend his record,” Republican presidential candidate, Ron DeSantis said, arguing that Trump owed it to voters to participate in debates.
“You’re not here tonight because you’re afraid of being on this stage and defending your record,” another candidate, Chris Christie said as he looked into the camera and addressed Trump directly. “No one’s going to call you Donald Trump anymore. They’re going to call you Donald Duck.”
“He needs to be voted off the island, and he needs to be taken out of this process,” Christie added.
