"Trump's Legal Maneuvers: Balancing Court Dates and Campaign Trail Ahead of Iowa"

Donald Trump plans to spend two days in court the week before the Iowa caucuses, a move his campaign and allies see as a boost to his bid for the White House. Despite his absence from traditional campaign stops in Iowa, his team believes that his court appearances resonate with voters by reinforcing his message of being unfairly targeted by the Biden administration. Trump's supporters view his legal battles as a reflection of a two-tiered justice system and are not concerned about his relative absence in Iowa, arguing that his pre-politics celebrity and incumbent status inoculate him from the typical demands of the Iowa electorate.
