Cedar Rapids, Iowa — As Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis completed a presidential campaign milestone Saturday afternoon by visiting all 99 counties in Iowa, former President Donald Trump largely ignored his GOP opponent by taking aim at another rival, President Biden, as the two candidates held dueling rallies in the state.
In an event in Cedar Rapids, Trump focused his attacks on Mr. Biden, who he claims is “destroying American democracy.” Trump appears to be seeking to frame the primary election as over before any votes have been cast, and focusing his attention on his 2020 rival.
The Trump campaign Saturday handed out new signs reading “Biden attacks Democracy” to rally-goers.
“Joe Biden is not the defender of American democracy. Joe Biden is the destroyer of American democracy,” Trump said to a crowded gymnasium at Kirkwood Community College, portraying the 91 criminal charges he faces across four criminal indictments as politicized.
