The Iowa State fair has been an essential stop on the road to the White House for candidates of both parties for decades. But can any candidate make gains against Trump?
The unassuming state of Iowa has been a hot spot on the American political map ever since the 70s when the Democratic Party made the state the first in the country to hold its primary elections.
The Republicans soon followed suit and the state has enjoyed the political spotlight ever since.
With the GOP debate less than two weeks away, all the candidates headed to the Iowa State fair over the weekend to make a good impression on the state.
While most candidates including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis might have hoped to use the event to break through to voters, Donald Trump once again showed why he is the man to beat in the Republican Primary.
