Trump won Iowa in a landslide. What happens next?

Good morning. It's Tuesday, January 16th. I'm Gideon Resnick, in for Shumita Basu. This is "Apple News Today." On today's show, Trump's big win at the Iowa caucuses, remembering a principal who risked his life to protect students in a recent mass shooting, and how a giant insulated cup became a global obsession.

We'll start in Iowa, where former President Donald Trump kicked off the 2024 campaign with a landslide victory in the caucuses. He won 51% of the vote.

I just want to thank you all. This is a very special night, and…

We love you!

… this is the first because the big night is going to be in November when we take back our country,

and truly, we do make our country great again. Thank you very much, everybody. Great honor. Thank you very much. Thank you.

Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley were far behind him, getting 21% and 19% of the vote, respectively. Both did try to frame the loss as a win.

Because of your support, in spite of all of that that they threw at us, everyone against us, we've got our ticket punched out of Iowa.

And Haley argued that her numbers in other states put her ahead of DeSantis as the leading Trump alternative in the race.

When you look at how we're doing in New Hampshire, in South Carolina, and beyond,

I can safely say, tonight, Iowa made this Republican primary a two-person race.

A second-place finish in Iowa might have helped propel Haley more. The next contest is the primary in New Hampshire next Tuesday. On "CBS," Republican political analyst Leslie Sanchez said the state could be more favorable territory for other candidates. But the kind of support Trump showed in Iowa will be hard to overcome.

Going into New Hampshire, a lot more independents, people that are open-minded conservatives, are leaning Republican, that are frustrated with Trump at the top of the ticket. That is open territory for Nikki Haley. But when you get past that, it gets incredibly difficult. The math gets incredibly difficult.

Turnout last night was quite a bit lower than the competitive 2016 caucus, which could be expected given the weather. One Republican candidate has decided not to keep fighting for what looks like a race for second. Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out after finishing a distant fourth in Iowa.

He is now endorsing Trump. There's more coverage and analysis of the Iowa results and the race ahead on the Apple News app. Now we want to highlight a story you might have missed this week, remembering someone who made an impact. Ten days after the mass shooting at Perry High School in Iowa,

the school's long-time principal, Dan Marburger, died at 56. He was shot while trying to distract the shooter. Witnesses say that Marburger gave several students time to escape. Marburger and his wife had five children. His daughter Claire said on social media that as soon as she heard there'd been a shooting, she had a feeling that her father would have tried to help. He has been lauded by Iowa authorities as a hero for intervening in a mass shooting that could have been more deadly.

Iowa's governor ordered flags to fly at half-staff in his honor. Now, let's take a quick look at some other stories that are in the news. Israel's defense minister says the military is close to completing its most intense phase of fighting against Hamas in Gaza.

But the military says there is still more fighting ahead, including a vast network of tunnels to clear. The Biden administration has been pressuring Israel to move into a lower-intensity campaign that focuses on precision attacks on Hamas, not the broad airstrikes and large ground deployments that have been part of the war so far. In legal news, former President Trump may testify at a defamation trial that starts in New York today.

I carried her with me in this last season. And really, it was her who carried me. It's very easy to act when you're pregnant because you've got hormones raging.

We have full coverage of the awards on the Apple News app. It seems like every week there is a new water bottle obsession. There's S'well, Hydro Flask, Nalgene, CamelBak, and more.

Maybe you've seen someone on social media literally showing off their collection. But recently one type of water bottle from the company Stanley has been getting a lot of attention. "CNBC" takes a closer look at the rise of the Quencher bottle. Until recently, Stanley didn't have a lot of buzz. It's been around for more than a hundred years and mostly targeted campers and blue-collar workers with its humble but practical green thermoses.

We felt really strongly that for a working mom to take her Stanley all day to hydrate her throughout her day does not in any way illustrate less strength than somebody taking a water bottle on a hike.

LeSueur partnered with Stanley executives to promote the brand, and the company rolled out new colors for the Quenchers to try to broaden its appeal. And the sales went way up. Today, Stanley Quenchers are among the most popular water bottles in the world, with some customers camping outside of stores overnight to get their hands on new limited editions. In 2023, Stanley was projected to make more than $750 million in sales. Just a few years before, that figure was $70 million.

And today, these ginormous $45 water bottles have become more than just something practical to drink out of. They're a kind of status symbol of wellness, health, and spending power. You can find all these stories and more in the Apple News app. And if you're already listening in the News app right now, stick around.
