ABC News and W. M. You are have cancelled the next GOP presidential primary debate

after only Ron DeSantis agreed to show up. Four candidates, Trump, Haley,

Bissantis, and Chris Christie, remember him, they qualified for the debate.

Christie has already dropped out.

Now, Nicki Haley is refusing to debate unless Trump shows up, which he's not going to do because he hasn't gone to any of them,

because he's leading the pack by just under 50 points nationally.

Haley is smart, not to debate, only DeSSantis because debates are always a risk and she has nothing to gain.

Mickey Haley is currently leading to Santis in the next state, New Hampshire, by

almost 23 points. The numbers are 23 point I'm sorry 29.3% to 6.5% for

DeSantis. A debate before New Hampshire would be all downside for Haley with no upside.

Haley also has no incentive to debate before the following state, Nevada, because she's not even

competing there.

A few years ago, Nevada legislators moved to replace the

state's caucus system which is similar to what we saw last night in Iowa with a

primary system which is more in line with what the rest of the country does.

The Nevada GOP opposed the move,

so it's holding a caucus anyway,

and says that anyone who participates in the primary

can't participate in the caucus.

But while all the rest of the GOP candidates opted for the GOP-run caucus,

Nicki sided with the state and filed for the primary,

so Nevada doesn't even matter to her.
