On the eve of the Iowa caucuses, former President Donald Trump urged his supporters to brave the dangerously cold temperatures forecast for Monday night and caucus for him — even if it’s the last thing they ever do.

“If you want to save America from crooked Joe Biden, you must go caucus tomorrow. First step, very first step,” Trump said in Indianola, Iowa, on Sunday night. “You can’t sit home. If you’re sick as a dog, you say: ‘God, I gotta make it.’ Even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it.”

The crowd laughed as Trump imitated a woman urging her sick husband to vote.

“If you’re sick, if you’re just so sick, you can’t, ‘Darling, I don’t think I can,'” the former president said to laughter. “‘Get up. Get up. You get up, you’re gonna vote.'”

“‘Yes, darling,’ because ultimately, we know who calls the shots, right?” he added.
