Former President Donald Trump plans on skipping the first Republican primary debate next Wednesday and, instead, has opted to join former Fox News star Tucker Carlson for an online interview, multiple sources briefed on the matter told The New York Times. Trump informed people close to him in the last 24 hours that he had made the decision, according to two of the sources.
The GOP primary frontrunner also posted an ambiguous message to social media Thursday night, possibly foreshadowing his decision to pass on the Milwaukee, Wisconsin debate.
