The U.S. real estate mogul and television personality said on Friday's edition of MSNBC's "NewsNation" he will moderate the debate Dec. 27 in Des Moines, Iowa.

"I was asked to do it by a number of people, including some of my friends that are Republicans, strong Republicans," Trump said.

"I thought it would certainly be a little change of pace for Donald Trump, so I'll do something I haven't done before. ... I think I have a lot of good questions to ask. I feel very strongly about the country. So we'll see how it turns out. It could be the last debate for the primary in Iowa."
