2020 Democrat front runner Joe Biden made a stop at a Dairy Queen in Pella, Iowa Thursday evening.
The place was nearly empty save for a few employees, Biden staffers and reporters in tow.
Reporters asked Biden questions about Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders.
Biden took a shot at Bernie Sanders and said, “He’s not a registered Democrat, to the best of my knowledge.”

Meanwhile, President Trump is in Des Moines talking to THOUSANDS of Iowans at the Knapp Center.
Supporters lined up over 24 hours early to see President Donald Trump in Iowa on Thursday night!
And it’s currently 24 degrees and feels like 17 degrees.
It’s a packed house!
