Christie Calls on Trump to Show Up for Debate

Republican presidential hopeful Chris Christie is challenging Donald Trump to show up for the presidential debates.

While speaking to reporters in New Hampshire Wednesdasy, Christie said it would be disrespectful to voters if the former president skipped the first GOP presidential primary debate later this month. He added that Trump has to earn the Republican nomination.

Trump has suggested he’s unlikely to participate in the debate set for August 23rd in Milwaukee as he’s considered to be the Republican frontrunner.
