When Republicans exercise their First Amendment right to protest unfairness they don't feel the need to block the interstate or vandalize public property.
Someone obviously hasn't kicked off their wingtip shoes and been on a farm lately. Americans will never support a smug elitist who trashes the men and women who feed the world.
Bloomberg on why farmers can’t work in information technology
MB: “I can teach anyone how to be a farmer 1 dig a hole 2 put a seed in 3 put dirt on top 4 add water 5 up comes the corn”

This barn, east of Eldridge, Iowa, is a perfect example of President Donald Trump’s strong support with farmers and small town Iowa.
Iowa is Trump Country!
Ben Sasse has always cared about one thing and that is himself. If he actually had an opponent, he would be talking out of the other side of his mouth.
Oh look, an elitist condescending on the Midwest. How easy it must be to insult Iowa from the friendly confines of your DC bubble. Don’t worry, we’ll keep delivering the state for Republicans. You can keep your “garbage” commentary.

Despite some false reports and rhetoric from the Democrats, Republicans are surging as we gear up for the General Election. In voter registration alone, we have shaved 10,000 off the gap & we are now below 5,000 -- giving us an even playing field.

Another update from Iowa Dems - There are inconsistencies in the reporting of the three sets of results.
They emphasize it is a reporting issue NOT a hack or issue with the app. They are using a paper trail to validate results.
We are on track to have nearly 100k Iowans participating in the 2024 Caucus despite freezing temperatures and our beautiful state being blanketed in snow just two days ago.
Iowans will brave the cold for the future of their families, communities, and country.

#RNC2020
Had a great 15 minute call from President Trump this evening.
He asked about Iowa’s farmers and other topics including Iowa’s first-in-the-nation status.
Vicki and I were thrilled to receive the news that our first grandchild was born this morning, Oliver William Kaufmann. Mother and son are doing great. My first gift to him is a little stuffed elephant.
We are the Party of law and order. This is NOT a peaceful protest. What is happening in Washington, D.C. is utterly unacceptable. I condemn any and all violence toward on our government officials and law enforcement and encourage others to do the same.
Yes, it’s quite obvious to Iowans that our state means nothing to you. That’s why you lost here in the 2008/2020 caucuses and in November 2020.
The only surprising part is that Iowa Democrats have failed to call Biden out on this condescending attitude.
Informing my new grandson in AZ about Iowa’s terrific governor,

I just finished up analysis of our Republican Red Wave in Iowa.
@GOPChairwoman
and the RNC were absolutely pivotal for our state. It is imperative that she remain as Chair of the RNC!
Last year on my birthday, I wished to have the ninth generation of my family living in Sugar Creek Township just north of Wilton. It happened.
Tonight I will have my first birthday supper with my grandson.
Thank you
@GOPChairwoman
and the entire RNC for reaffirming the rules that allow Iowa to hold our First in the Nation caucuses.
Iowans take their responsibility seriously and stand ready to kick off our nation’s presidential nominating process!
FBI agents raid a private home on behalf of the National Archives!?
Whether you like Trump or not, and whether you want Donald Trump to be President again or not, this is the weaponization of the Justice Department.
We all know where this came from!
It’s disappointing that he felt the need to deceive Iowans - if the people of District 58 can’t trust him on something as simple and fundamental as what party he belongs to, how can they trust him on any issue.

Almost 2 to 1 GOP margin of people that are registered to vote and still need to do so.

We all must humbly work for every Republican on our ticket. We can’t leave anything up to chance!

No matter where Iowans live, we know we all play a part in stopping Joe Biden’s radical agenda. It will take all of us to take back the House and the Senate in 2022.
I strongly condemn the racist threats made toward Chair Wilburn. We can have a spirited debate on issues and candidates without threats of violence. I am pleased the authorities are looking into this and hope those responsible are held accountable for their actions.
It is the honor of a lifetime to be elected to serve the people of eastern and southern Iowa.
Iowans are tenacious, optimistic and hard working, and I will take those same attributes to Washington, D.C.

My views on diversity are best summed up by President Reagan: “[We]'re filled with the spirit of our land in all of its magnificent diversity...We Americans come from every continent...Ours are the faces of all humanity, just as our nation was built by the hopes of all humanity.”
I visited my 95-year old father this Thanksgiving. He survived the Great Depression, the South Pacific during World War II, and challenges on our family farm. This really was America's greatest generation.
White nationalism isn’t founded in anything forward looking; it’s founded in romanticizing the racism of the past. The bigotry that will be displayed tomorrow is senseless, shameful and harmful to everything we stand for. There’s simply no place for it in our society, period.

I’ve said it all year and I’ll say it again: refusing to support the candidate who wins the primary is a misguided position and completely disrespects the grassroots who voted in the primary.
This position favors a socialist, anti-Trump candidate and helps Kamala Harris.

Congressman Leonard Boswell was a patriot who represented our state with integrity. He honorably served the people of Iowa in Congress and our country in the armed forces. Our condolences are with his family.
She just ripped the speech in half. What a childish, immature move for a Speaker of the House. This is a slap in the face to the honorable servicemembers who were honored tonight, and especially to the mothers and their children who were recognized.
