Donald Trump won the Iowa caucuses Monday night with what was expected to be the largest margin in the history of the first Republican presidential nominating contest. It could spell trouble for his rivals, including former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and signal a very short GOP primary season.

Here is what to know:

The results: The votes are still being tabulated, but the former president's victory shows how the GOP has stood with him despite his legal woes and false claims the 2020 election was stolen from him.

Donald Trump: The front-runner pushed his supporters to turn out, despite the cold, to secure a big win. One thing to watch when the final numbers are tallied: his margin of victory.

Nikki Haley: The former U.N. ambassador was in a tight battle for second place with DeSantis, and her last-minute pitches to Iowa voters aimed to capitalize on recent momentum.

Ron DeSantis: The Florida governor had made Iowa his focus, positioning himself as the underdog during an extensive ground game he had hoped would boost his chances.
