Joni Ernst's blind allegiance to Donald Trump may hurt her in November

Iowa Poll: Joni Ernst's approval rating slips as she mounts reelection campaign.  (Des Moines Register, 3/7/2020)
Ernst, a freshman Republican from Red Oak, was the first Iowa woman elected to Congress, defeating Democrat Bruce Braley in 2014. She will be on the ballot in November in a marquee race that could become a key target for Democrats looking to retake the Senate. It has already been the focus of millions of dollars of outside spending.

Scott Walker thinks she has presidential potential.
