 Former President Donald Trump courted young conservative activist Saturday morning in Des Moines as he kicked off another day of campaigning in the state that will launch the race for the White House in just over a week, you're a good-looking crowd. I usually don't look at people who are this attractive, Trump quipped to members of Run Jens, an organization that encourages young conservatives to run for office. Many in the audience at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Des Moines seemed surprised to see Trump, whose visit had not been previously announced.Trump's campaign is hoping to turn out thousands of supporters who have never caucused before on January 15 as part of a show of force aimed at denying his rival's momentum and demonstrating his organizing prowess heading into the general election. I just want to tell you that we have an opportunity, this is the most important election we've ever had, he said. I think this election will be very, very pivotal for our country. Trump is set to hold a pair of commit to caucus events later Saturday in Newton in central Iowa and Clinton in the states far east. And a lot of people said, you know, that's going to be their theme, that I'm a threat to democracy. I mean, they're screwing with our elections, they're doing things that nobody's ever done before in terms of weaponization with DOJ, with FBI. I got indicted more than Al Capone. You know, I got up and they said, sir, you'll have some protesters outside that we're going to have protesters from Nikki's campaign. You just got a lot of enthusiasm. So I go down to the elevator. I'm all set. I'm going to walk right through those protesters. There was one person. Hi, hi, Mr. Trump. Oh, I'm sorry, President Trump. I see he's the nicest protestor I've ever seen. There was one person. They organize that for about two weeks. So let's see what happens. He released all of the things that I put into place, which made it impossible, very, very hard for people to come into our country. And we have now an onslaught. We have an invasion. It's an invasion of our country. So this is the most important election we've ever had. And I appreciate your support. So the big thing is to get out and vote. We got to make sure that everybody gets out. Doesn't say, well, you know, it's a little cool out. Let's just watch it. And then you say, where's my vote? Because that sets the stage for November. Very importantly, when they see this, when they see the kind of enthusiasm, I've never seen enthusiasm more than 16 and more than 2020. I've never seen the enthusiasm. But it's a great honor. You're very, you're a good looking crowd. You know, I usually don't look at people that are so attractive.
