President Trump Will Travel to Iowa State Fair With 9 Florida Republicans Who Endorsed Him, On Same Day DeSantis Will Attend

Sundance reporting for Conservative Treehouse 

President Trump is too good at trolling the opposition; in part that’s why the professional left hate him so much.

According to the Des Moines Register, President Trump and Ron DeSantis will be attending the Iowa State Fair on Saturday.  However, President Trump will be flying into the political event with a contingent of Florida republicans who endorsed him and not DeMeatball.

IOWA – […] Former President Donald Trump will visit the Iowa State Fair Saturday with a bevy of congressional endorsers in tow — not high-profile Iowans, but nine Florida Republicans who have backed him over his chief rival and fellow Floridian, Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Trump’s campaign confirmed to the Des Moines Register that Republican U.S. Reps. Gus Bilirakis, Byron Donalds, Matt Gaetz, Carlos Gimenez, Brian Mast, Cory Mills, Anna Paulina Luna, Greg Steube and Mike Waltz will all be traveling with Trump to the Iowa State Fair and will be with him through the day.

Each of them has endorsed Trump over DeSantis, a former member of Congress, who will also be at the fair Saturday.

[…] It’s the latest instance of Trump’s campaign timing his travels to Iowa to pull the attention of media and attendees away from DeSantis and toward their candidate.

Other details of Trump’s visit to the fairgrounds, scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday, remain scant. But he will visit on his own terms — as the only Republican candidate, besides Chris Christie, who won’t participate in either the Des Moines Register’s Political Soapbox or the “fair-side chat” series with Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds.

[…]  It is unclear whether Trump’s presence, which comes with Secret Service and security measures, will have a significant impact on the fair’s operations and crowd sizes on an expected high-traffic Saturday. A spokesperson for the Iowa State Fair was not immediately available for comment Tuesday evening.

In 2015, Trump caused a stir at the fairgrounds by landing his helicopter nearby and offering rides to children. (read more)
