Huge Threat For Joe Biden As Donald Trump Dominates IOWA
US president Donald Trump was reportedly the runaway winner of the first contest in the 2024 GOP primary.
Trump’s blowout victory solidifies his commanding position atop the Republican field, leading many to wonder whether the race to take on President Joe Biden in November was all but over before it began.
By the time Iowans trudged through the snowy night to cast their votes, his victory was all but certain.
The real contest Monday night was between Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who were locked in a battle for second when Trump took the stage Monday night to call for the party to unite around him.
“We are going to come together. It’s gonna happen soon, too. It’s gonna happen soon,” Trump said at a victory party in Des Moines. “I want to congratulate Ron and Nikki for having a good time together. We’re all having a good time together. I think they both actually did very well.” As Trump was finishing his remarks on stage in Des Moines, the AP declared DeSantis the silver medalist.
