What’s Happening in Iowa Is Huge News for Trump, But Other Candidates Won’t Like How the Caucus Is Shaping Up
A little more than a month away from the first votes of the GOP primary race, former President Donald Trump’s first-place position has just gotten stronger.
Results of a major poll released Monday show Trump has expanded his lead over his Republican rivals in the first-in-the-nation contest, while concerns among his supporters about his legal problems appear to be diminishing.
And while Trump’s competitors might not like that, there’s one historical comparison on the table that Democrats should like even less.
According to the NBC News/Des Moines Register/Mediacom poll, the 45th president holds the support of an outright majority of Iowa Republicans with 51 percent of those responding, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is in a firm second at 19 percent and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley is at 16 percent.
