But the Iowa governor has been the subject of criticism from one prominent presidential hopeful: former President Donald Trump, the current frontrunner in the race.

Trump publicly lashed out at Reynolds on social media last month, after she appeared at several events with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, one of Trump’s closest opponents in the polls.

Trump won’t get a pass from Iowa voters, who are used to candidates doggedly hitting the campaign trail in the state ahead of the caucuses.

“They expect him to be here and want to interact with all the candidates,” Reynolds said.

“What I’m hearing, they are checking and holding and asking questions,” Reynolds said of Iowa voters. “Because ultimately what they tell me is we need to put a Republican in the White House in 2024, and they want the candidate they think can win.”
