Trump restores Iowa and Kansas rallies to Sunday schedule
President Trump is scheduled to hold rallies in Iowa and Kansas on Sunday, reversing plans to cancel the events and replace them with tele-rallies.
President Trump is scheduled to hold rallies in Iowa and Kansas on Sunday, reversing plans to cancel both events and conduct tele-rallies instead. The restored appearances remain upcoming events.
A source familiar with the plans said the rallies had been rearranged to make room in the president's schedule for dozens of additional tele-rallies that had recently been added.
Republican Senate candidates in both Iowa and Kansas are in close races. Trump visited Iowa last week, and he held a rally in Kansas on Oct. 19.
On Thursday, the president had offered a different explanation for canceling the Kansas rally: he said Marshall was performing very well in the race.
In a Friday morning interview with Kansas City's KCMO radio, President Trump said he imagined incumbent Republican Sen. Roger Marshall was in a strong position against Democratic challenger Adam Hamilton.
