3. Donald Trump delivered Iowans a plate of red meat policy talk Tuesday, highlighting threats to family farms, the Second Amendment and national security while avoiding the issue of his Democratic rival's health.
“Prosperity will rise, poverty will recede and wages will finally begin to grow and they will grow rapidly,” he told a crowd of about 1,600 at a rally in Clive. “If they don’t, I’ll be very disappointed in myself.”
The rally marked Trump’s fourth trip to Iowa since securing the Republican nomination in July as he and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton vie for the state’s six electoral votes. He was last in the state Aug. 27 attending U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst’s Roast and Ride fundraiser and echoed many of the same sentiments Tuesday. Clinton has campaigned once in Iowa since earning the nomination, but has seen Iowans at campaign stops on the Illinois side of the Quad Cities and in Omaha.
