And I wouldn’t count on that. No pub other than a sitting president has won both IA and NH since sometime before 1976. And Trump has double digit leads in every early primary.

Still, wishful thinking is free. Have fun.

Iowa didn’t start the presidential preference straw vote until 1972 with Democrats. GOP started in 1976.

Just like your wishful thinking that Iowa is pretty much worthless. Got news for your and your bad logic #1 winning in Iowa is helpful to a campaign no matter how much you insist it isn’t and #2 just because in the past the winner in Iowa hasn’t won the Presidency in the last couple cycles doesn’t mean it ~can’t~ happen. Doesn’t mean the winner will, either, but it sure can’t hurt and will help.
