Trump Wins Big in Republican Iowa Caucus

[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] On the 3rd (local time), U.S. President Donald Trump achieved a landslide victory at the Iowa caucus.

President Trump defeated former Massachusetts Governor Bill Weld and former House Speaker Joe Walsh on that day. Foreign media reported Trump's victory just 25 minutes after the vote count began. It is known that President Trump secured more than 97% of the total votes from voters.

President Trump said on Twitter, "Tonight, we all had a great victory" and "Thank you."

In this year's U.S. presidential election, there was great interest in who would become the Democratic presidential candidate, but interest in the Republican side was not high. This is because there is no candidate to oppose President Trump.

Moreover, the impeachment trial, which had been a stumbling block for President Trump, is likely to be dismissed in the Senate impeachment trial on the 5th.

The Republican Party is expected to continue the one-man show of President Trump and proceed with the presidential candidate selection process. The final presidential candidate will be decided at the national convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, on August 27.

Meanwhile, the Democratic presidential candidate opposing Trump will be decided at the national convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on July 16.
