Donald Trump, who is under fraud investigation in two states promised a gathering of Iowa Republicans that he would restore honesty to the US government if he is elected president.

These are the people who work hard, but who don’t have a voice. Their voice has been taken away. It’s also a campaign about restoring honesty and accountability to government.”
