Presidential contenders descended on Iowa to meet with voters — and in one case, a cow.
Donald Trump waves to supporters at the Iowa Pork Producers tent at the Iowa State Fair on Saturday, Aug. 12. | Charlie Neibergall/AP PhotoDES MOINES — One presidential contender rapped to Eminem’s “Lose Yourself.” Others flipped pork chops and played games. Donald Trump bought thousands of dollars worth of food, while his supporters dogged his main rival, Ron DeSantis, all weekend long.
It all started when Reynolds asked Ramaswamy what his favorite walk-up song was, to which Ramaswamy answered with “Lose Yourself.” Reynolds wasn’t familiar with the song. DeSantis ignored the Trump supporters at the pork tent. But they kept chanting. And when it wasn’t Trump supporters trolling DeSantis, he was forced to contend with protesters on the left.
Following a brief scuffle between the protesters and a DeSantis supporter, the protesters were kicked out of the event by law enforcement.On the first day of the fair, former Vice President Mike Pence was confronted with a tough question that he was eager to take on: “Why did you commit treason on Jan. 6?”
The former vice president talked about meeting the cow when he was campaigning in Iowa earlier this year and then said hello to him when he was inspecting livestock.Former President Donald Trump overshadowed the other candidates’ presence at the fair on Saturday with his plane flying over the fairgrounds and crowds of supporters waiting to catch a glimpse of him at the fair.
