Donald Trump urged voters to get out to the polls, even if they were “sick as a dog”, in a defiant rally on the eve of his first major election test.

The former president said that even if people “passed away” shortly after voting it would be “worth it”, and once again launched attacks on the New York judge who had denied him a delay in his civil trial so that he could his mother-in-law’s funeral.

On Saturday Mr Trump blasted judge Lewis A Kaplan on Truth Social as he made his way to frigid Iowa for Monday’s caucuses. Having cancelled the bulk of his campaign events due to weather, he held a telerally on Saturday and an in-person event on Sunday - after the final state poll showed him with a commanding lead.

It came on the heels of Mr Trump being ordered to payThe New York Times almost $400,000 in legal costs over a failed lawsuit he brought against the paper, three of its journalists, and his niece, Mary Trump.

The former president alleged a breach of confidentiality regarding his tax records but the case was dismissed last year.

Show latest update 47 minutes ago VOICES – Nikki Haley’s caucus-eve appearance leads to snowbound fiasco

Where is the line between enthusiasm and recklessness?

Nikki Haley, wherever that line is, was brushing up against it Sunday evening.

Voters were set to caucus in Iowa — the first, and in 2024 one of the most competitive contests of the season — just 25 hours after Ms Haley began speaking to voters at a small lodge in Adel, Iowa. Inside the event, a small crowd of pumped-up Haley supporters cheered their candidate on.

Outside was a different story. As it turns out, holding a nighttime event in the woods after a blizzard creates exactly the kind of situation one would expect.

Take a look at the nightmare developing in Iowa, as GOP candidates battle the worst winter weather the region has seen in many years:

Nikki Haley’s caucus-eve appearance leads to snowbound fiasco The former UN ambassador is hoping to make a splash in the first Republican contest of the 2024 race. But holding a nighttime event in the woods after a blizzard may be part of a snowy exercise in pointlessness, writes John Bowden in Des Moines, Iowa

1 hour ago WATCH: Trump arrives in Iowa

Donald Trump touched down in Iowa on Saturday night - appearing ill-dressed for the frigid weather.

“It’s a lot of cold weather,” the ex-president remarked before saying he has “a lot meetings” tonight and slipping past reporters.

3 hours ago Biden knocks Trump by comparing him to Herbert Hoover

Joe Biden has hit out at Donald Trump’s claims that he “doesn’t want to be Herbert Hoover” in a new campaign video in which he informs his predecessor that he “already is”.

Mr Biden responded to a clip of Mr Trump from earlier this week, in which the former president said he hoped the US economy crashed “in the next 12 months”.

“When there’s a crash, I hope it’s in the next 12 months because I don’t want to be Herbert Hoover,” Mr Trump said, during a Lindell TV interview with Lou Dobbs on Monday.

The comment alluded to the 31st US president, who succeeded Calvin Coolidge at the tail-end of the Roaring Twenties before swiftly being hit by the Wall Street Crash in the autumn of 1929 and then voted out of office in 1932 as the Great Depression hit.

In his own video, posted on Thursday, Mr Biden blasted Mr Trump’s own record in office.

9 hours ago ICYMI: Trump campaign derailed by Iowa weather

Donald Trump was forced to make adjustments to his campaigning schedule in Iowa ahead of Monday’s caucuses, due to severe weather conditions in the state.

The changes were made “out of an abundance of caution amid severe weather advisories” and “to ensure the safety of Maga patriots across Iowa”, according to a campaign press release.

The former president was originally set to hold campaign events on Saturday and Sunday in Atlantic, Sioux City, Indianola and Cherokee.

On Friday, his team announced that several live appearances would be replaced with tele-rallies, with only one in-person event still taking place in Indianola.

It comes as blizzard warnings remain in place for large parts of the state, according to the National Weather Service, with Iowans advised to avoid outdoor activity if possible.

11 hours ago On the ground in Iowa

The Independent’s John Bowden is on the ground in Iowa providing updates ahead of Monday’s caucuses.

Here is his latest dispatch:

Candidates continued their respective last-minute pushes in Iowa on Saturday and into Sunday morning, despite bitter subzero temperatures and a biting wind that left most roads in outright dangerous conditions across the state. Donald Trump cancelled events on Saturday and was due for an in-person appearance Sunday afternoon — his campaign has largely checked out of in=person events as a new NBC/DMR poll shows him leading the state by double digits. Nikki Haley. Vivek Ramaswamy and Ron DeSantis all pushed ahead in person, working their respective audiences and making a final push for voters on Monday. Ms Haley picked up a weekend endorsement from anti-Trump Republican Larry Hogan, the former governor of Maryland, while Mr DeSantis saw his campaign tailed by liberal pranksters and his poll numbers dropping him into third place.

14 hours ago How Trump broke the Iowa caucuses

Donald Trump has hosted massive rallies in Iowa, speaking to hundreds and sometimes thousands of people at once. If fewer than 400 attended, it was considered a small event.

The ex-president looks likely to win Monday’s contest handily having done very little, if any, of the small-scale campaigning that used to be required to win. Iowa is no longer universally seen as the stepping stone it once was.

Eric Garcia and Gustaf Kilander explain how Mr Trump upended the state’s caucus system:

White House responds after Trump warns of ‘bedlam’ if he loses election The White House has responded to Donald Trump’s claim that there will be “bedlam” in the US if criminal cases deny him returning as president. Speaking to The Independent White House correspondent Andrew Feinberg, Karine Jean-Pierre said: “President Biden has always been absolutely clear. When it comes to this, political violence has no place whatsoever in America.... Failing to condemn or discourage criminal violence, especially after dangerous conspiracies and violent rhetoric, [has] cost law enforcement officers their lives. “If you are a leader in this country, you need to put this country first. You need to put the safety of the American people first.”

17 hours ago How Trump’s trial dates and the Republican primaries will intertwine

In a typical presidential election year, candidates will spend the 11 months leading up to election day shaking hands and kissing babies at rallies as the primaries unfold.

But nothing is typical when it comes to Donald Trump.

Instead, the ex-president will be forced to juggle his campaign for the White House while also defending himself in federal and state courts in four different trials that are currently set to occur between January and May.

Kicking off with E Jean Carroll’s damages trial on the same day as the Iowa caucus to his federal classified documents trial one month before the GOP convention, Mr Trump’s jam-packed schedule seemingly leaves little time for him to socialise outside of a courtroom.

How Mr Trump will manage his campaign while convincing voters he’s innocent of it all – including alleged efforts to overturn previous elections in his favour – remains to be seen.
