Ted Cruz and The Iowa Caucuses Couldn’t Stop This Dude From Working Out – WATCH

While Ted Cruz walloped Trump and Hillary Clinton edged out a razor-thin victory, some on social media are declaring another person the true winner of the Iowa Caucuses: Rowing Dude.

Rowing Dude is a man who was caught on video by journalist Jon Ward getting in his workout at the Jefferson Community Center while Ted Cruz held a campaign rally. Rowing Dude was apparently undeterred by Cruz's gathering or his ranting about 5 left wing judges on the Supreme Court removing Ten Commandments monuments all around the country. He had his eye on the prize.

People on Twitter were quickly taken with Rowing Dude, though some were concerned about his form.

Others merely marveled at the optics and reveled in the hilarity.

I'd like to think rowing dude is the only Iowan who fully researched and picked his candidate weeks ago. https://t.co/xseZGwWs48

Ward himself later tweeted, “all due respect to @tedcruz & @HillaryClinton but i think rowing dude won the Iowa caucuses.”

Rowing Dude was, however, not the only fitness enthusiast who wouldn't let Cruz's presence derail their workout.
