'Atmosphere of fear': Trump moves to curtail voting rights ahead of the midterms
Americans vote on November 3 in midterm elections that could see Republicans lose control of Congress, endangering US President Donald Trump's legislative agenda. Under the US Constitution, elections are organized by the respective states – but that has not halted US President Donald Trump from trying to wield his influence ahead of the vote.
President Donald Trump faced an unexpected interruption during his campaign rally in Daytona Beach, Florida on Friday. The 80-year-old appeared to struggle to keep one eye open, pausing to wipe it with a napkin dipped in water. Trump acknowledged the issue, joking that he had something in his eye and that it felt much better after wiping it.
Despite the brief distraction, the audience continued to support him. However, the incident sparked speculation about the President's health, with some critics accusing him of downplaying concerns. Trump dismissed these claims, stating that if he had a serious health issue, the media would call him seriously ill. The midterms hold significant political importance, as they could determine which party controls Congress.
