Iowa State University, based in Ames, Iowa, faced off Saturday against in-state rival University of Iowa, in Ames. Before the game, Trump visited the Alpha Gamma Rho (AGR) agriculture fraternity house–where he threw footballs lined up on a beer pong table into the crowd of those gathered to see him.

The latest polling out of Iowa, conducted by pollster Civiqs in conjunction with Iowa State, shows Trump currently at majority support there with 51 percent ahead of January’s caucuses. The next closest candidate, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, trails Trump in Iowa by 37 percent–DeSantis has dropped down to just 14 percent support–as his campaign now admits he might not win Iowa. DeSantis’s team had previously signaled he needed to win Iowa to keep his long-shot hopes alive, but now aides for the Florida governor’s struggling 2024 White House bid told Politico this week that if he comes in at least a “strong second” he thinks he will be okay. Illogically, DeSantis’s team even says they can still win the nomination without winning any states.
“I don’t think there’s a single state we have to win,” a DeSantis campaign official told Politico.
Trump on Friday night just won the endorsement of South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, whose state borders Iowa. Noem had been considered at one point a possible contender for the 2024 campaign, but decided instead quite clearly to back Trump.
Let’s see Namrata do any of that!

wont tire of watching this......notice the weenie skip Biden does before getting beaned.....lol
Who is Namrata? Never heard of him.
That’s Biden-Harris level stupid right there. What has happened to DeSantis? Did he sell his brain as well as his soul to the establishment GOP? He was sitting pretty for 2028, but let the never-Trump establishment types seduce him into believing that he could win now, and get rid of Trump in the process. He watched every asset of the left try to “get Trump”, and dash themselves against the rocks in the process, yet DeSantis thought, “I think I’ll have a go at that.”
I was a big believer in the Trump 2024 - DeSantis 2028 formula, but now I think DeSantis blowing his political career to smithereens in selfish pursuit of political glory has allowed us to dodge a bullet that we didn’t know would be coming. Gives us time to be clear-eyed about finding a true MAGA candidate for 2028.
aka "Animal House"?
MAGA-TOGA,MAGA-TOGA!
It’s been fun watching the media do everything they can to promote a “race” with anyone but Trump. The problem is every time Trump shows up he sucks the air out of everyone else and his support is demonstrated by the crowds and enthusiasm. I wonder how much more political capital Governor Reynolds will waste on De Santis. She’s rowing against a pretty strong current and the futility is making her look out of step with her constituency.
““I don’t think there’s a single state we have to win,” a DeSantis campaign official told Politico.”
at first, i read this as “I don’t think there’s a single state we can win”, which upon reflection is way closer to reality than the original nonsensical statement above ...
I agree with your view…wow… he had our support for 2028, but showed us his true GOPe-uniparty truth! Disgusting man.
😜👍🏻🤣
Watching Biden get beaned is an all-time thrill......lol.
Yuppers! 😍
😅😀😃🤣🤣
So called experts are claiming Iowa is ripe for an upset,Desantis is flipping burgers all across the State,in Iowa that is what counts,national polls mean nothing,the voters want you in their living rooms.
Sure that will save the country,Trump loves America he’s not a usual BS politician,if you can’t see that folks out there there is no hope for you
His security people must be having a heart attack.
Who is Namrata? Never heard of him.
Nicki Haley’s first real name. Ramaswamy called her by her first name and the Holy campaign went Ballistic !!
...the Haley campaign went ballistic...
Love it.

“I don’t think there’s a single state we have to win,”
Translates to: I don’t think we’ll win a single state.
Did DeSantis sell his brain, as well as his soul, to the establishment GOP?
He watched every filthy asset of the left try to “get Trump,”
and clobber themselves against the rocks in the process.
Yet DeSantis thought, “I think I’ll have a go at that.”
Rotflol.
