Second Republican presidential debate live updates: Bickering about economy, energy, China — and they couldn’t resist calling out Trump

The seven 2024 GOP presidential candidates debated the auto worker strike, health care, inflation and President Biden during the second Republican primary debate, but Trump remained the elephant not in the room.

He also got a new nickname that night, despite being three time zones away from the stage.

The candidates gathered at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California for a two-hour verbal tirade that began at 9 p.m. ET. on Fox Business.

Seven of the eight candidates from the first debate were there, after former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson failed to qualify.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former South Carolina Gov. and Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), former Vice President Mike Pence, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and Gov. North Dakota’s Doug Burgum battled it out on the debate stage.

Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump — the GOP frontrunner — spent the afternoon visiting Michigan to rally with members of the striking United Auto Workers union.
