Republican Candidates Clash in Chaotic Third Debate

The third Republican debate held in Miami, Florida was a two-hour spectacle that left many viewers bewildered. Candidates Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswami, Tim Scott, and Chris Christie took the stage, but the overall performance did not provide any standout moments or change the perception of the race. The moderators, Lester Holt, Kristen Welker, and Hugh Hewitt, did their best to control the chaotic atmosphere. Questions focused on a range of topics, including foreign policy, the economy, and Donald Trump's influence on the party. While there were some attempts to address substantive issues, the debate was characterized by obscure policy fights and heated exchanges among the candidates. Overall, the debate did not appear to have a significant impact on the race, reinforcing the belief that avoiding a second Trump presidency is a priority for many Republicans.
