Donald Trump made a grand entrance at Iowa State Fair on Saturday - overshadowing Ron DeSantis and other contenders for the Republican presidential nomination who were trying to counter the power of the former president.

Meanwhile, the former president arrived in the grandeur that only Trump can bring. Trump Force One flew low over the fairgrounds for the crowd to see. Secret Service wanded a long line of people waiting to get into Steers & Steins to see the former president. Mobs followed him throughout the fairgrounds, shouting his name.

Trump spent only about an hour on the ground in Iowa: he stopped by the pork tent, an animal center and then addressed a crowd at Steers & Steins, the popular beer joint on the fair grounds.

The former president was mobbed every where he went on the fairgrounds. He attempted to look at cows at one of the animal tents but was surrounded by people, who wanted photos and his signature. Trump shook hands as he worked the crowd.

I think they are people flown in representing the LBGT community who are still yelling about the Disney issue. They are protesting the false “don’t say gay” issue in the the text books also. These people will yell the most vile and vulgar stuff at any candidate they don’t like. Also these vulgar left wingers are going after RFK Jr, and he’s a Democrat.

Best food item at the Iowa State Fair - huge pork chops on a stick, juicy moist and tender. Vendor is 1 or 2 spots from one of the booths my daughter and her husband's family runs at the fair. Lots of pro-Trump people in Iowa.

A group of five liberal protestors disrupted DeSantis' first event - a 'fair-side chat' with Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds - before they were ejected and banned from returning to fairgrounds until September 2024.

The Sexual Weirdo/Groomer/Pervert 'Community' is after Ron DeSantis with everything they've got. He's the first Governor to seriously take them on and they're out to destroy him.

Interesting you assumed I meant trumpeteers......I made no such inference.

To the detriment of this forum, objectivity and civil debate really has gotten scarce as of late.

Is that the Iowa Pork Producers Association tent? They say they’ll serve 50,000 pork chops on a stick during the Fair, not counting other cuts available.

They know more about how to cook modern pork than anyone. They have very modern recipes on their web site.

‘Heritage Pork’ is great stuff, but modern pork with newer cooking instructions is fabulous too.
