President Donald Trump’s campaign announced the location of his first two events of 2024, where he will host two rallies just hours apart from each other in the same state.
Trump’s first debut of the year will be a Team Trump Iowa Commit to Caucus Rally in Sioux Center, Iowa on Friday, Jan. 5.
Trump is set to speak to supporters at 5:00 p.m. ET, and doors to the event will open at 2:00 p.m. ET. Tickets for the rally can be found here.
Later the same day, President Trump will travel westward across the state to hold a second rally in Mason City, Iowa. The event will also be a commit to caucus rally like his earlier venture in the state.
Trump is set to speak to supporters at 8:30 p.m. ET, and doors to the event will open at 5:30 p.m. ET. Tickets for the rally can be found here.
The 45th president has continually ramped up his visits to the Hawkeye State, visiting the state four times in December.
The Iowa GOP primary is set to take place on Jan. 15, 2024. Iowa’s 40 delegates are awarded on a proportional basis and is scheduled to be the first primary contest in the nation.
Pre-election polling has also shown the 45th president with a wide lead over his other primary opponents. The Real Clear Politics average shows Trump with a near 33-point lead as of Dec. 21 (32.7 percent).
Trump’s closest primary challenger, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, placed in a distant second with 18.6 percent, while former S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley placed third with 16.1 percent support.
Per his campaign announcement, Trump touted that he “accomplished more for Iowa than any administration in history,” such as protecting the state’s first-in-the-nation caucuses, and adding “almost 22,000 new jobs in the first three years of the Trump Administration, including 10,100 new manufacturing jobs.”
The campaign also celebrated Trump’s success of making “E15 ethanol available year-round,” which they claimed helped advance American energy independence.
“President Trump also dramatically increased the number of fueling pumps where E15 could be sold across the country,” the Trump campaign continued. “President Trump slashed the estate tax, or the death tax, to allow Iowa farmers to keep farms in the family.”
