Many of the nation's Republican eyeballs were focused on the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Miami on Wednesday night. But the most conspicuous nonparticipant in the third GOP debate of the 2024 presidential campaign was ten miles away in Hialeah, stoking up his supporters at Ted Hendricks Stadium in Henry Milander Park.

New Times contributing photographer Michele Eve Sandberg was there to mingle with the MAGA crowd awaiting the arrival of Donald Trump.
