Former President Trump encouraged his Iowa supporters to caucus for him at any cost, joking that due to extreme winter weather, “even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it.”
Meteorologists warned of “life-threatening” conditions in Iowa for the weekend as the state prepares to caucus. Trump canceled three of his four in-person Iowa events Sunday due to the freezing cold and snow.
Windchill is projected to be as low as -40 degrees in parts of the state Monday, with temperatures also in the negative. The Hawkeye State is also recovering from a blizzard that rocked the region Friday and Saturday, icing roads.
“You can’t sit home. If you’re sick as a dog, you say, ‘Darling, I gotta make it,’” Trump said at an Indianola rally on Sunday. “Even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it, remember.”

Honestly this is why Trump is so popular. If the left was half as motivated they would rule.
"If"? I don't know how old you are but people lined up around the block during a worldwide pandemic (when there was no vaccine) to kick this smelly fatass out. They just didn't go to any rallies because that doesn't matter.
And yet voter turnout is lower in the US than anywhere else
Lower than "anywhere else"? No. Not only does turnout depend on the state and the type of election, other comparable countries have a similar range of participation.
Here's a table of the turnout for the last EU parliamentary elections. You can see it ranges from 22% to 88% depending on the country:
