CNN Republican presidential debate and Trump town hall: How to watch online

The fifth Republican primary debate is almost here, as is former president Donald Trump's competing town hall event. Only two candidates will take part in the debate in Iowa, which takes place less than a week before the important Iowa caucus on Jan. 15. 5th Republican debate: 9 p.m. ET on CNN Trump town hall: 9 p.m.

ET on Fox News • U.S. — Watch both channels via Sling or Fubo • Watch anywhere — try ExpressVPN 100% risk free The debate is hosted by CNN and is being moderated by network anchors Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley will take the stage in Iowa as the only two candidates, aside from Trump, who qualified for the debate.

Previous debate participants like conservative entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, didn’t make the cut. But while Trump is the frontrunner leading the Iowa caucus polls, he is skipping the debate to appear on a Fox News town hall instead — on the same day and at the same time.

The town hall will be moderated by Fox News personalities Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. Trump has not participated in any debates so far and in October, urged the Republican National Committee to cancel any remaining debates. Here's how you can watch either or both events.
