(AP/WXMI) — Donald Trump is in, but Ben Carson is out for tonight’s Republican presidential debate in Detroit.

Carson issued a statement on Wednesday, saying he doesn’t see “a political path forward.”

As for Donald Trump, who has had a tense relationship with Fox News, the Republican front-runner will be attending the Thursday night debate.

The GOP frontrunner skipped out on the last debate held by Fox News because Megyn Kelly was a moderator. She’ll be co-moderating tonight’s debate.

Look for live coverage from Detroit on FOX 17 News later today.
