Republican presidential hopefuls travel to Iowa to pitch themselves to voters. They were met with a big crowd and big decisions for 2024.
The race for president intensified this weekend, with many of the Republican presidential candidates hitting the trail in Iowa for the annual Roast and Ride political fundraiser.

"My wife Karen and I have spent a lot of time reflecting and praying about how we might best serve the country during a very challenging time," said Pence when asked if he was announcing in Iowa.When asked if we will see him in Milwaukee as the nominee in 2024, DeSantis said,"That's why I'm running, man. That’s why I’m running.
It was a casting call of diverse candidates at the Iowa fairgrounds. From South Carolina, Senator Tim Scott, who is trying to be the first African American Republican nominee.To former U.S. Ambassador and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, who is also not a fan of the debt ceiling deal, that still doesn't reduce the nation's nearly $32 trillion debt.
