Omaha attorney Dave Begley covered the presidential candidates for us Iowa and Nebraska over the past two years. Today he recalls Donald Trump’s 2015 stop in Sioux City, Iowa, and looks back:It has been a long and strange trip for President Donald J. Trump from the first time I saw him at Sioux City West high school on October 18, 2015 to his inauguration on January 20, 2017. I can write with confidence that he is the same man whom I first saw on that day but he has grown greatly and improved. That result, I submit, is from his hard work meeting people from all over the country, including those from “the windswept plains of Nebraska.”
One thing is clear to me that few are able to admit: he has a genius for connecting with average people who are not the typical Republican voter. My long conversation with meat packer “Janet Jackson” in Sioux City that day convinced me that Trump had a chance.
