Donald Trump makes final midterm campaign push

President Donald Trump is making a final push ahead of the midterm elections. He is scheduled to hold back-to-back rallies in Iowa and Kansas on Sunday, after initially canceling in-person appearances and replacing them with tele-rallies. Trump, who is not running for office, expressed optimism, stating he feels good and believes they will perform well in both Iowa and Kansas.

These states have historically been Republican strongholds, but Trump won both in the 2024 presidential election. However, Republicans are trying to retain key Senate seats in both states. In Kansas, Democrat Adam Hamilton is challenging Republican Senator Roger Marshall. If Hamilton wins, he would be the first Democrat to hold a Senate seat in the state in 94 years.

Trump enters the midterms with historically low approval ratings due to discontent over the economy, rising fuel and food prices, and the unpopular war in Iran. Over 53 million people have already voted, either in person or by mail. With all 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats up for grabs, the outcome could significantly impact the President's legislative agenda for the remaining two years of his term.

If Democrats gain control of Congress, they might investigate alleged corruption, similar to previous impeachment proceedings against Trump.
