Summary

Tonight is the first Republican presidential debate, where eight candidates will square off in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Who has the most to gain and most to lose? And what topics will dominate the debate? Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, host of "The Sean Spicer Show," spoke to The Daily Signal about what he'll be watching and why his old boss—former President Donald Trump—opted to do an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson instead. Spicer launched his new show this week to coincide with the GOP debate. After publishing bestselling books and hosting "Spicer & Co." on Newsmax, he's now betting on independent media.
