Former President Donald Trump urged his supporters to brave the cold temperatures and take part in Monday’s Iowa caucus, where polls show he has a massive lead over other GOP candidates.

At a rally in Indianola on Sunday, President Trump encouraged Iowa supporters to come out and vote. “You can’t sit home. If you’re sick as a dog, you say, ‘Darling, I gotta make it,’” he said while jokingly adding that “even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it.”
