Medill Reports caught up with the former Pennsylvania senator in outside a rally for Donald Trump shortly after the GOP undercard debate on Thursday night.

Only four years ago, Santorum emerged triumphant from Iowa. This time, he is now trailing far behind frontrunners Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.

Santorum said his plans for his final days before Monday night’s first-in-the-nation caucus are simple: speak with as many voters as possible and telling his story.
