with me to talk more about all of this is a politics reporter for "the des moines register."how significant is it that donald trump would skip this family leadership summit among other things there in iowa this weekend. >> it's certainly notable. i think it's emphasized by the fact given the last week of iowa his comments about the popular governor kim reynolds among conservatives. i think a lot of his challengers see this as a critical moment to start carving that path and niche in iowa to start gaining ground on him. i think they believe that evangelical group to be a huge bloc of that. >> so how is trump's reasoning kind of resonating there that he's upset with the iowa republican governor kim reynolds, criticizing her. but he says, wait a minute, she was supposed to remain neutral, but she showed up at a ron desantis event. how is that going over with voters there? >> certainly. i think it will depend on who you talk to there. there are a lot of republicans and conservatives here in iowa who are massive fans of governor reynolds. so you see a lot of support for her here,

let's go straight to des moines and i want to speak to our corresponded patsy co, heinous, patsy. we've just revisited some of the key. nobody's ever been speaking over the course of the day, of course, or waiting for for donald trump to speak. he costs a very long shadow over every single one of these candidates. but is it possible to tease a common thread through some of the speakers that we've been listening to say fun as well? i think when you're talking about donald trump, it is incredibly long shadow what the thread is that nobody really wants to say his name. you heard me, keeley there, the former governor of south carolina, former us faster to the united nations under president trump. you heard him say her, say republicans gave us the deficit in the debt. but republicans, not donald trump, which was in fact the truth of billions of dollars increased because of his tax cuts. you heard mike pen say that it's time to return to an air of civility, as you can given to the, the inter populism. obviously that's a not so val reference to donald trump, who is a very populous to pre

joining me from des moines, shaquille brewster. capture earlier. let me ask you about this six-week ban because the legislature as i understand it, already passed one. there was a court ordered injunction. it went to the supreme court. nothing happened because there was no clear majority. why would another six-week ban that looks almost identical to the last one pass this time? >> yeah, let's walk through this. it's largely because republicans are making the bet that enough has changed in the state of iowa. now republicans are hoping to pass it again because one thing we saw from the courts when they deadlocked last month when the governor requested that launch be revived, the courts, we'll put this up on a full screen for you. you heard three justices explain unprecedented jurisdictional and procedural issues in this case fall away if the legislature enacts a new abortion law and that essentially what is taking place. roe has overturned. there's more conservative justices on the state supreme court so republicans are hoping when t
