0:56Now PlayingDonald Trump and Ron DeSantis faced off with dueling events at Iowa’s state fair, taking their fight for the presidential nomination to the traditional political jamboree while avoiding a direct confrontation.
Courting thousands of potential Republican voters, the two candidates didn’t cross paths but their appearances on Saturday had the feel of a showdown in the crucial first-in-the-nation caucus state. But one in which Trump took aim at further diminishing DeSantis’s struggling campaign.
While DeSantis steered clear of attacking Trump, DeSantis barbs were fair game for the former president. He told reporters he didn’t think he had written off the Florida governor too early.
Asked whether he saw DeSantis as his main rival, Trump responded “I don’t see him.”
Trump, the GOP frontrunner by a large margin, brought along a large delegation of Florida Republicans who endorsed him over DeSantis.
