We look at the Republican race to become 2024 presidential nominee. Two of the candidates, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley are squaring off Wednesday night in Iowa for a presidential debate hosted by CNN. However, the front runner, former President Donald Trump is skipping the event. Instead, he will appear in a town hall on Fox. Political Correspondent for Real Clear Politics, Susan Crabtree joins to share whether she believes DeSantis or Haley have what it takes to beat Trump. She discusses what she wants out of this debate. The former president faces 91 felony counts across 2 state courts and 2 different federal districts, yet he leads the polls. Crabtree explains this. The next primary race is in New Hampshire, where Haley has cut Trump's lead to single digits. Crabtree fills us in on what is happening there.
