jeff zeleny, cnn, des moines. >>> natasha lindstaedt is joining us from england. we knew donald trump had a huge lead going into this, but are you surprised it is as big as it is given he hasn't debated and put in the work on the ground like his opponents? >> no, i'm not surprised. he has only been to some 25 events compared to desantis who put everything into iowa, visited 99 counties, put a lot of money into his campaign. but trump supporters are really passionate about him. they are willing to wait hours and hours in the cold just to see him speak. and as the report mentioned, he has this huge lead going in and that is likely to hold. in fact if he doesn't get a 25, 30 point lead or result in the iowa caucus, that would be a sign that there was something a little bit off with the campaign. but i would like to point out that i think terrorism's campaign in iowa has been much more well organized and more effective than let's say it was back in 2016 when he lost to ted cruz. so though he might not be physically appearing in iowa that much, the organization itself

jeff zeleny, you have been out in iowa a the lot. what do you make of the fact that as we just laid out, the two who are kind of right under donald trump are still mostly going after each other and not the guy who is so far ahead. >> because the guy so far ahead has a core base of supporters. no tv ad or new argument is going to pry most of sportders away. but the available voters are the people who have made the decision to move on from trump. they believe it's a good idea to have a new face of the republican party. those are largely people either still open minded but looking at nikki haley or ron desantis. so this race for second place is actually really fascinating. it has so many layers to it. a couple things that i'm watching as we head out to iowa later this week. nikki haley, she's starting off much later in terms of organization and ground game, but a couple voters i was texting with over the holidays, they are still trying to decide. that's what heez commercials are designed to do. so that's why trump is getting a free pass
