  • It's been just a week since Donald Trump returned as president, and already he's dominating New Jersey politics.

The article from Politico's New Jersey Playbook discusses Donald Trump's activities during his first week in New Jersey after the Iowa caucuses. Trump, who has been spending time at his Bedminster golf club, has been actively engaging with his supporters and the media. He held a rally in New Hampshire, where he criticized his GOP rivals, particularly focusing on Nikki Haley, and reiterated his claims about the 2020 election being stolen. Additionally, Trump has been using his time in New Jersey to strategize for the upcoming primaries, with his campaign focusing on mobilizing voters and maintaining his lead in the polls. The article also touches on local political reactions to Trump's presence, with some New Jersey Republicans expressing cautious optimism about his influence on local races, while others remain skeptical. Furthermore, there's mention of Trump's legal battles, including a defamation lawsuit by E. Jean Carroll, which adds another layer to his public engagements.
