Trump was nowhere to be found because he’s, by far, the Republican frontrunner. He instead chose to do an interview with Tucker Carlson that aired on X, formerly known as Twitter.

 

During the two-hour debate, Vivek was thrust into the spotlight during several heated exchanges with his rivals, especially Christie, who called him “ChatGPT.” Vivek was also the only candidate to raise his hand when asked if anyone would not support an increase in funding for the war in Ukraine.

 

When the conversation turned to climate change, Vivek labeled it a hoax, prompting boos from the crowd. He was also quick to raise his hand when asked whether the candidates would support Trump if he were convicted in any of his four criminal cases.
