Trump canceled planned Kansas and Iowa election rallies and faced backlash after clashing with a reporter over question on his health.

Trump explains why he is cancelling Iowa and Kansas rallies the weekend before midterms: ‘I feel perfect’

Donald Trump announced the cancellation of election rallies in Kansas and Iowa the weekend before the midterm election. The decision comes as the Republican Party aims to broaden their outreach to voters rather than focusing on two states. The White House cited Trump's perfect health as the reason for the cancellation, dismissing a reporter's question about his possible sickness.

Trump even suggested he's avoiding Kansas because Sen. Roger Marshall is doing well. The GOP strategy now involves virtual rallies instead of in-person appearances. Recent polls show Trump's approval rating has increased to 32%, up from a historic low of 31%. However, 41 candidates in key races are distancing themselves from Trump over the Iran war.
