Even though Trump decided to forego the Fox News GOP presidential debate, his supporters still came out in full force.
Videos on X show a group of young Trump supporters holding signs outside of DeSantis’s tour bus.
Many of the supporters shouted “USA USA” and “Trump, Trump, Trump!”

Politico shared these details about the debate that occurred Milwaukee:
Ron DeSantis expected to take the brunt of his opponents’ fire.
Instead, he faded into the crowd.
Largely ignored for two hours by his lower-polling rivals on Wednesday, the Florida governor watched as the first debate of the GOP primary turned into a pile on Vivek Ramaswamy, the 38-year-old biotech entrepreneur rising in polls.
Mike Pence tangled with Ramaswamy. So did Nikki Haley and Chris Christie. DeSantis, still polling second to former President Donald Trump — but with his campaign floundering — was all but reduced to an afterthought, while Pence, Haley and Christie dominated the stage.
The debate may have reset the race a bit, but only for candidates not named Trump. Who came out the best? Who had a bad night? And did we even learn anything new?
