Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis sparred on a range of issues in a contentious fifth Republican debate, days before the Iowa caucuses Monday and hours after Chris Christie suspended his campaign. Here’s what happened onstage:
DeSantis and Haley accused each other of lying, with Haley touting a website listing DeSantis’s alleged untruths. Later, hosts pressed them to say one nice thing about the other.
Both criticized Trump’s record in direct terms, while dodging a question about his character.
DeSantis defended battling Disney as governor of Florida. Haley said government shouldn’t meddle with companies.
Trump, who skipped the debate, teased that he has already decided who his VP pick is, during a Fox News town hall.
