Republican voters in Iowa are rallying behind former President Donald Trump, with county GOP leaders saying the indictments against him are fueling the party's fire heading into the 2024 election.
Trump has pleaded not guilty to both state and federal indictments, the former out of Manhattan and the latter out of Miami. The news of the former president's criminal charges sparked outrage among Republicans.Some GOP members saw the indictments as a warning sign to move away from Trump in 2024, while others, particularly in red Iowa counties, are using this as a rallying cry to throw support behind the former president in the primary.
"This last set of indictments, federal, it was almost like someone poured diesel fuel on a smoldering fire," Koch said."People started to look at what's happening to President Trump and they are asking themselves, 'Is that fair? Is it fair that they're attacking him?'" In Iowa and across the U.S., the news of the indictments sparked support for the former president in both polling and donations. His 2024 presidential campaign hauled in $6.6 million"and counting" in the days following the federal criminal charges relating to the retention of classified documents.
Some counties in the Hawkeye State have taken the indictment news as just another factor to consider over the months leading up to the caucuses, where Iowa remains first in the nation for Republicans. Democrats have selected South Carolina as their first primary state. "They do that every time, no matter what is going on. Whether it's the indictment or anything, this is Iowa. We are the caucus and we get all these candidates, and we're talking and looking at every single one," Mazza said.
She said her team was keeping track of who would attack Trump, who would ignore him, or who would be the"class act" and discuss the indictments. The candidates overwhelmingly chose the party over their individual run and condemned the criminal cases.
