Donald Trump, who has taken the lead in Iowa polls and stayed on top in New Hampshire and nationally, will boycott tonight’s debate over his long-running feud with Fox News host and debate moderator Megyn Kelly, instead hosting a competing event on CNN. Trump did not reveal many details about his event, but did reveal he would be raising funds for the Wounded Warrior Project, a charity devoted to rehabilitating and reintegrating disabled veterans.
The event will take place at 9 p.m. Eastern (just like the GOP debate) and will be broadcast on CNN. GOP undercard candidates Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum will attend after the undercard debate concludes.
