Republican businessman Perry Johnson, a former candidate for governor of Michigan, is back on the airwaves and hitting the road in Iowa.
The former Trump VP and potential 2024 presidential candidate discussed foreign policy with Iowa GOP U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst and fielded questions about Trump’s apparent pending arrest and calls for protest
Former President Donald Trump kicked off a rally in Davenport speaking about his accomplishments as president, including trade policies and agriculture Monday. It was Trump’s first visit to the state since announcing his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
By ignoring the cards, Trump's team essentially left a pile of uncashed checks out in the open, leaving him vulnerable to better-organized GOP rivals. He was beaten in Iowa by Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, who would go on to fight Trump state by state for three months.
The top two leading contenders in the race for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination area headed to Iowa.
South Carolina U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, a prospective 2024 Republican presidential candidate, stopped in Des Moines as part of his “Faith In America” listening tour.
Newly announced Republican presidential candidate and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said the party has “got to move forward” from former President Donald Trump.

Nikki Haley is swinging through Iowa this week fresh off announcing her presidential campaign. Her fellow South Carolinian Republican, Sen. Tim Scott, will also be here as he decides his political future. And former Vice President Mike Pence was just in the state courting influential evangelical Christian activists.
Nikki Haley, the former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador who is returning next week to make stops in Iowa, announced her candidacy for president Tuesday, becoming the first major challenger to former President Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination.
Former Vice President Mike Pence is stepping up his outreach in Iowa ahead of a possible 2024 presidential campaign by rallying conservatives against transgender-affirming policies in schools, like one adopted in Linn-Mar last year.
Iowa’s campaign landscape is markedly different this year, with a Republican field seemingly frozen by Trump’s early announcement of a 2024 campaign. So far, only former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson has visited this year, and U.S. Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina is making plans to stop by in the next few weeks.
The party is looking to bounce back from several consecutive poor showings in recent election cycles.
Jeff Kaufmann was unanimously re-elected Saturday as chair of the Republican Party of Iowa.
