In a debate on the Fox News Channel, Donald Trump's rivals for the GOP nomination seemed to revel in the chance to hit the billionaire candidate who failed to show up. Ted Cruz mocked Trump's proclivity for insults by saying, "I'm a maniac, and everyone on this stage is stupid, fat and ugly, and Ben, you're a terrible surgeon." Trump, who refused to participate due to a feud with debate moderator Megyn Kelly of Fox News, held his own event at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa.
