New York, May 13 (EFE).- Former US President Donad Trump canceled a 2024 re-election campaign event scheduled for today in the city of Des Moines in Iowa due to a tornado alert issued by the National Weather Service.
“Unfortunately, due to tornado warnings in Des Moines we are forced to cancel the outdoor rally at Lauridsen Amphitheater,” he said in his message on his Truth Social social network.
According to a message that the Republican leader had published shortly before, all the tickets for this event had been sold out.
“Stay tuned, we will reschedule soon. Take care out there! ”, He also indicated to his followers.
However, the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, also a Republican, was able to continue with the event that he also had today in Iowa.
DeSantis, who is expected to make his intention to run for president of the country known in the coming days, attended an annual family outing for US Congressman Randy Feenstra in the northwestern city of Sioux Center, the most conservative corner of the state, according to CNN.
“If we make 2024 a referendum on Joe Biden and his failures and provide a positive alternative for the future of this country, the Republicans will win in all areas,” he said in an electoral environment, referring to President Biden, who seeks to revalidate for others four years.
In his warning to his party, ahead of the presidential elections, the controversial governor assured that if, on the contrary, “we get distracted, if we focus on past elections or other secondary issues, then I think the Democrats are going to beat us.” again and that it will be very difficult to recover ”.
The Republican, who gave his speech steps from a sign that read “DeSantis ’24”, from a political action committee (PAC) that supports him, affirmed that it is time to restore “sanity”, “normalcy”, the “integrity” and “truth” in the country’s approach to education, crime, and border security.
Traditionally, the states of Iowa and New Hampshire are the first to show the most viable candidates for the presidential elections of the two main parties, the Republican and the Democrat.
In Iowa, two high-profile Republicans, State Senate Speaker Amy Sinclair and House Majority Leader Matt Windschitl, endorse DeSantis’ possible candidacy.
