But only Haley and DeSantis will be participating in the event, as Trump will be doing some counter-programming: a town hall on Fox News. The CNN debate and the Fox News town hall will begin at the same time, 9 p.m. CNN’s Dana Bash and Jake Tapper will moderate the debate; Fox News’ Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum will moderate the town hall. Chris Christie did not make the cut for the Iowa debate despite qualifying for the four previous primary debates. PREVIOUSLY: Fox News will host a town hall featuring former President Donald Trump on January 10, counter-programming to CNN’s Republican debate from Iowa that same evening.
