From Washington: GOP Hopefuls Look to Upend Trump in Iowa

President Joe Biden turned 81 last week. However, the celebration only brought attention to a recent AP-NORC poll indicating that nearly 80 percent of Americans think he is too old to serve a second term. Yet, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says there aren't any behind-the-scenes worries about the President's old age. Democratic pollster and CEO of Schoen Cooperman Research, Carly Cooperman joins to break down voters' concerns about Biden’s age and explain why his campaign is eager to dispute claims that another Democratic hopeful will emerge soon. 

With the Iowa Republican presidential caucuses less than two months away, former President Trump remains the overwhelming frontrunner in both the Hawkeye state and national polls. The Republican presidential hopefuls may need to upend Trump there if they want to have any chance of winning the nomination. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently won the endorsements of Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and Bob Vander Plaats, an influential Evangelical conservative leader in the state. Some Former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove discusses where the candidates stand ahead of the caucus and explains why endorsements can make or break a campaign.
