Former President Donald Trump held a rally and launched his Farmers for Trump coalition this past weekend in Council Bluffs, Iowa, with several state agriculture leaders serving as co-chairs.

The Iowa Farmers for Trump Co-Chairs include three current farmer members of the Iowa state legislature who serve on the agriculture committee, Reps. Mike Sexton, Derek Wulf, and Heather Hora, in addition to former state rep David Kerr and former USDA official Jeremy Davis.

“No president has ever come close to me in fighting for farmers and ranchers,” Trump claimed before the crowd of supporters. “I’m proud to be the most pro-farmer president you’ve ever had in the White House.”

The Republican presidential candidate touted actions he took while in office to help farmers, such as rolling back the Waters of the United States, ending the estate tax, renegotiating trade agreements, and supporting ethanol, while attacking both his GOP opponent Ron DeSantis and current President Joe Biden.

“Every Iowan needs to know that Ron DeSanctus totally despises Iowa ethanol and ethanol generally,” said Trump. “Joe Biden is trying to kill Iowa ethanol and replace it with expensive electric cars.”
