"Powerful Republican Lineup: Trump, DeSantis, and Top Candidates Unite in Iowa"

Thirteen major Republican presidential candidates, including Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, will share a stage at the Iowa Republican party's 2023 Lincoln Dinner fundraiser. Despite facing legal liabilities, Trump maintains a significant lead in Iowa polls, with 46% support among likely caucus-goers. DeSantis, who has seen a dip in support, will use the event to reset his faltering campaign. Senator Tim Scott criticized DeSantis over his support for new educational standards in Florida, while Scott's own primary prospects are on the rise. Trump, facing multiple criminal investigations, is expected to address the charges and denounce them as "witch-hunts".
