In a defiant rally on the eve of a crucial election test, former President Donald Trump urged voters to make their way to the polls, even if they were feeling unwell. Trump emphasized that it was essential for individuals to exercise their right to vote, stating that even if they were "sick as a dog", it shouldn't stop them from participating in the democratic process.

During the rally, Trump went even further, suggesting that it would be "worth it" if voters "passed away" shortly after casting their ballots. The controversial statement raised eyebrows among political observers, highlighting the intensity of Trump's call to action.

Not only did Trump rally voters, but he also took the opportunity to launch yet another attack on New York judge Lewis A. Kaplan. This time, the former president criticized the judge for denying him a delay in his civil trial, which would have allowed him to attend his mother-in-law's funeral. Trump's criticism of Judge Kaplan spilled over onto the social media platform Truth Social, where he blasted the judge during his journey to Iowa for Monday's caucuses.

Inclement weather forced the cancellation of several campaign events, but this did not deter Trump. On Saturday, he held a telerally, addressing his supporters remotely, followed by an in-person event on Sunday. The final state polls, released before the events, indicated that Trump was leading by a significant margin.

As the election day drew closer, Trump's relentless push for voters to make their voices heard resonated with his ardent supporters. The former president's controversial remarks and ongoing disputes have dominated headlines, underscoring the political fervor surrounding his campaign.

Monday's caucuses will serve as a major test for Trump, as he seeks to gauge his support and momentum within the political landscape. With a commanding lead in the latest state polls, Trump remains a formidable force in the race, undeterred by external challenges and determined to make his mark in the upcoming election.
