Yahoo News ‘Handsome’ Farage makes surprise appearance at Trump’s Iowa victory party
Nigel Farage made a surprise appearance at a party celebrating Donald Trump’s sweeping victory in the Republican Iowa caucus.
The former Brexit Party leader, a long-standing supporter of Mr Trump, told The Telegraph at the caucus night party that the ex-president was on track to win re-election in November.
“I can’t see it being Biden,” he said, pointing to the incumbent’s falling approval ratings and “polling in the swing states in the last couple of months”.
Mr Farage added that Vivek Ramaswamy, who endorsed Mr Trump and pulled out of the race to become nominee after finishing fourth in Iowa, had a “big future” ahead of him.
Earlier this week, Mr Trump had attacked Mr Ramaswamy on social media, accusing him of “campaign tricks”.
“At the end of the day, the king doesn’t like anyone challenging him,” said Mr Farage. “But I think he’s interesting.”
Earlier on Monday, the honorary Reform UK president appeared at a rally for Mr Trump’s supporters, during which the ex-president hailed him as a “handsome guy” and said: “He’s been a backer of mine from day one.”
