data-mm-id=”_okmh73cbv”>The Republican primary debates continued Wednesday night in Miami, as the GOP hopefuls tried to say anything to gain them traction against long-presumed candidate Donald Trump. Vivek Ramaswamy took the first shot at doing so early on, blasting his own party for having MSNBC moderate one of the debates. He then suggested who he thought should have been the night's moderators and elicited eye-rolls from the Internet.Ramaswamy called the GOP "a party of losers" after a string of election losses, called for RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel to resign, then said Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk should have been moderating the debate.Watch:"We've become a party of losers" — Vivek Ramaswamy, who goes on to call for Ronna McDaniel's resignation and for Tucker Carlson, Elon, and Joe Rogan to moderate the debate. He then pivots to a full-frontal attack on Kristen Welker. Wow. pic.twitter.com/JaYbZy42IG— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) November 9, 2023That's fairly naked pandering.Those who enjoy that sort of thing, likely enjoyed that sort of thing. Not sure it'll do much to make a dent as in the latest average of polls Trump holds a commanding lead (56.5 percent) while Ramaswamy is polling at around 5.2 percent.

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri insists Cristiano Ronaldo is serene despite a warrant for his DNA amid the ongoing investigation into a rape allegation.
American Kathryn Mayorga has accused Ronaldo of sexually assaulting her in a hotel in Las Vegas in 2009, something the Portugal captain has strenuously refuted.
German publication Der Spiegel first reported the claims, which also included the suggestion Ronaldo paid Ms Mayorga $375,000 in 2010 as part of a privacy agreement, preventing her from going public with the allegations. Ms Mayorga filed a lawsuit in an attempt to quash that agreement, while Las Vegas police have re-opened an investigation.
Ronaldo s lawyer Peter Christiansen confirmed the payment was made to Ms Mayorga, but said some documents presen…

The Albania striker was among the Chelsea substitutes as Mauricio Pochettino’s side were beaten 4-1 at Liverpool on Wednesday.
Broja did not get on the pitch and Fulham boss Marco Silva is keen to bolster his forward options with Raul Jimenez’s hamstring injury leaving them light in attack.
Aston Villa, West Ham and Wolves have also been linked with Broja this month, but Fulham now appear Broja’s most likely destination should he leave Stamford Bridge for now.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic maintained his scoring run with a goal in each half to help Milan earn a 3-1 win over 10-man Napoli that takes his side back to the top of Serie A.
Sassuolo moved to the summit earlier on Sunday with a 2-0 win at Hellas Verona but Milan responded with an Ibrahimovic-inspired victory at Stadio San Paolo to go two points clear.
The veteran striker headed in from 14 yards with 20 minutes played to score for the eighth league game running before kneeing in an unorthodox second after 54 minutes, but he worryingly limped off late on with a thigh injury.
Dries Mertens had responded for Napoli only for Tiemoue Bakayoko to be sent off 165 seconds later and Milan, without head coach Stefano Pioli and a number of other backroom staff members due to corona…

On the same ground where Liverpool beat RB Leipzig in the Champions League on Tuesday, Spurs dismantled their Austrian opponents with a superb first-half display.
Bale was integral, teeing up Son Heung-min s opener before doubling Spurs lead with a fine finish.
Lucas Moura put Spurs further ahead and even though Moussa Sissoko s lapse amid a disjointed second-half performance from Spurs allowed Michael Liendl to pull one back from the penalty spot, substitute Carlos Vinicius restored the three-goal cushion.
