Trump Touts Past Success With America's Farmers Ahead of Iowa Visit

The most obvious signal of a nearing presidential election cycle is when both declared and potential Republican candidates schedule stops in Iowa, where candidates can thrive and build momentum or quickly realize that it’s not their time to shine.

A key to winning the hearts of voting Iowans is the ability to connect with — and impress — the state’s farmers and farming industry in general, which is irrefutably the heart and soul of the Hawkeye State. Out of the upcoming crop of GOP candidates, former President Donald Trump has the unique ability to do just that.

Sunday morning, a day before a planned trip to corn country, Trump reminded his followers on Truth Social that he is clearly the best choice in candidates for farmers, adding that no president has done more for America’s farmers than he did during his presidency.
