Former President Donald Trump could smash an Iowa GOP caucus record — with “all parts of the state very supportive,” Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird told Newsmax on Monday. Bird recalled on “Newsline” then-candidate and Kansas GOP Sen. Bob Dole’s 12-point victory in 1988 caucuses in Iowa, predicting Trump “is poised to blow that out of the water,” crediting “his strong energy and momentum.”
“He’s going to do very well tonight,” she said of Trump. “I think he’s going to place 1st, 2nd and 3rd from all of the energy and momentum that I’m seeing out there. And I think how the other [contenders in the state] just won’t matter. I think we’ll have a big win in Iowa with all of this support — every demographic in Iowa, all parts of the state very supportive of President Trump.”
She also dismissed any impact from cold weather and a snowstorm that could challenge participation in the caucuses.
“We’re used to winter here in Iowa and it is cold. It’s colder than it usually is,” she noted. “But the snow has been cleared. The good news is that caucuses are indoors. People just need to go to their caucus, bring their ID and vote for President Trump. He has strong support here, and we just need to get everybody out on caucus night.”
Bird also trashed the Georgia case against Trump now that the prosecutor faces a scandal of her own. Court papers filed in the case claim an alleged romantic partner was employed by Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis to prosecute Trump.
“President Trump has had a target on his back since day one,” Bird said. “They have been after him and Iowans and Americans see right through it.”
“I think that we’re going to see more about this as this goes forward, but I don’t think … the whole prosecution has much of an impact other than reminding Americans that President Trump is the one that the powerful elites are scared of right now, and they’re doing everything they can even kicking him off the ballot.”
