there were the messages were tucker carlsen had sent donald trump's presidency was a disaster and he be happy to see him exit the stage. there may not be a perfectly collegial atmosphere between up, but they both obviously have bones to pick with fox news, the conservative television network hosting this site. their agendas aligned tonight and they are going to try to draw some attention away from this today. katrina: not everybody is a fan of donald trump but they will be watching this debate >> if you look at the polls, donald trump has majority support among republicans right now but it is not rocksolid. about half of donald trump's support in an iowa pooll -- poll has a said they are willing to entertain other candidates. the strategies you feel his supporters away, you either do a chris christie or asa hutchinson and take him head-on or you are vivek ramaswamy, trying to position yourself just like trump that may be different enough. katrina: we will give an eye on that tonight. anthony, thank you. earlier, i spoke with jason miller, senior advisor on donald trump's campaign, ab

bill: he absolutely hovered over it, including having a pretaped interview with tucker carlsen.the debate as the topics shifted from abortion to the southern border to the phenyl crisis, his team was sending out blasts to its supporters about his opinions on those issues. very few candidates were willing to criticize him directly at all with one exception being his former advisor, new jersey governor chris christie who has made his brand on a tracking -- brand on attacking trump. other than that, they were trying to gain trump supporters and you do not do that by attacking the former politician. lizzy: did it change the dynamic at all? bill: coming in, everyone has a different goal. someone like governor ford or desantis who is pulling second and hoping not to make any big mistakes and leave a negative impression, i don't think he tripped himself up at all. for many of the people on the stage it was a chance to introduce himself to the voters, someone like a businessman, very outspoken, very experienced debater from his time in college , really trying to make an impression on th

kailey, if i want to get a handle on what is happening here, do i watch the temporal -- tucker carlsenmp or the debate? which will be the bigger drop? -- drop. kailey: this is a big question. the former president is leading by 40 plus points and does trying to counter program talks by -- fox by speaking to tucker carlsen in exactly the time the debate starts on fox. however, the question will be what will bring more substantive policy conversations? moderators of the debate have said they want to focus on policy. trump will be an unavoidable topic. we understand they will be using soundbite from the former president in their questioning to former candidates there will be other questioning to the 7 or 8 individuals. there is some question about whether doug berman will be at the debate. but things like con -- the economy, china, ukraine will also be topics of conversation. alix: they are clearly featuring donald trump in some capacity but who is it to win or lose? usually in these things, the path of the spin is clear. but i have no idea what the spin will look like after this. kailey:

the only part of the tucker carlsen donald trump then last night i watched is why he was skipping. it was entirely self-serving. he never said i don't think republican voters are going to learn from this or this is not a productive way -- who said there is nothing in it for me. the answer gave, that was his answer. i think he should at least pretend to care about public interest and in that answer he said what is in it for me? host: we will play the answer. >> why are you not at the debate in milwaukee? >> a lot of people have been asking me that. many people said you shouldn't do it, you see the polls,, i'm leading by 50 and 60 points, some of them are 1, 0, 2. to sit there for an hour, two hours, get harassed by people who should not even be running for president, should not be doing that, at a network that is not particularly friendly to me. they were backing ron de sanctimonious and now he is a lost cause. romania 2016. the became very friendly after i won. i thought it would be more important not to do the debate. if you are leading by 50, 60, one pole i was leading by 70 poin

guest: i worked for tucker carlsen for six years at the daily caller. me to see him become this dominant news force. he has been famous as long as i have known him. but, he is now a superstar. i think that donald trump intentionally tries to distract him the debate by doing counter programming, instead of appearing at the debate, trump went on tucker carlson's twitter show and they aired it at 8:55 p.m. eastern, exactly five minutes before the republican primary debate on fox news, tucker's former employer, was slated to air. i think donald trump generally does suck up all the attention. he is obviously incredibly entertaining. obviously, the next day, the day after the debate, he surrendered himself during prime time, i might add. trump knows how to get attention. i think he knows how to do counter programming. i do not think it works flawlessly. i think this debate mattered to a certain degree. i think that it looks like the ratings were pretty good, not as good as they would have been if trump had been there, but pretty good. yeah, i think donald tru

it is scheduled for wednesday, expected to set for an online interview with tucker carlsen.t do you make of that decision, and how might it affect the debate? >> he saying i'm bigger than the republican party. it wants candidates to debate. donald trump is no stranger to violating norms. politically if i were an advisor to trump, i'd say he's doing the right thing. why put him in the path of chris christie if he doesn't need to? it will transform the debate. it looks like a debate of contenders vying with each other to see who gets to face off with the champ. i would imagine it would be tough for ron desantis, the path leads to desantis. every other candidate on the stage will take down ron desantis and tell the donor class and disaffected republicans that i'm the guy. it is up to me. i'm looking at it as the primaries to get to trump. hopefully somebody will emerge. >> ron desantis said, without mentioning donald trump's name, all republican contenders of it to the people to showp on that stage. they said they know his record, and why should he share the stage with people p

the former president sitting down with tucker carlsen, who also used to be a fox news host.president on the stage it does give more breathing room for these candidates to talk about policy. if you look at some of the latest polls, that is what voters are craving. they want to hear with these individuals have to say, not about the former president, which they are constantly asked about, or policy initiatives. what is their path regarding the economy and what are they going to do to bring inflation down? many voters continue to say is still hammering them and it comes to higher rent, higher energy prices. without the former president in the room there is going to be this avenue for them to explore actual policy dialogue. the issue is the host are going to have to ask about the former president. these candidates are not trying to just be the nominee beat president biden, he also need to deal with this encumbered within their own party who is dominating in the polls. lisa: we have a sense of how much the core of the republican party are people who are concretely in trump's cap u

he would sit down with taco car's and -- tucker carlsen and this would be streamed on the platform likeit is called now. that is what the counter programming is. the issue the trunk and would have if he did do that is he is speaking to the same individuals that already support him. it would mean they would offer up a lot more space on the debate stage for potentially one of these candidates to breakthrough, given the fact trump has been dominating in the polls. i'm not support raised -- surprised at this moment if he does not show up even though he loves to be the center of attention because he is also having -- not having his press conference monday evening. he would talk about his latest indictment in georgia, due to the legal advice from his team. i might and his team does not want him in a position where he's forced to talk about his legal troubles. if you watch the kudlow interview, he was even asked about the debate nor asked about any of the four indictments he faces. jonathan: let's talk about the indictments, what about court dates? where are we now? annmarie: there is a bunch
