DeSantis Takes Iowa by Storm as Trump's Presence Looms.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, a likely presidential candidate, spoke to Iowans on Saturday, calling for a "positive alternative" to Joe Biden and urging the GOP to reject a "culture of losing." Though he did not mention Donald Trump by name, DeSantis's comments were seen as an implicit rebuke of the former president, who remains the front-runner in the 2024 Republican field. Trump had been scheduled to hold a rally in Iowa on Saturday, but it was canceled due to severe weather. DeSantis made an unscheduled stop at a nearby restaurant, where he flipped burgers and spoke with supporters.
