THE RIGHT Trump Closes Midterm Push With Iowa and Kansas Rallies
At the Iowa stop, he backed Ashley Hinson and Zach Lahn, while Speaker Mike Johnson said Republicans can hold their narrow House majority.
Trump spent the final weekend before Tuesday's midterms rallying Republican turnout in Iowa and Kansas. At the Iowa event on Sunday he endorsed Senate candidate Ashley Hinson and gubernatorial candidate Zach Lahn.
House Speaker Mike Johnson joined him and said Republicans can keep their narrow House majority.
Trump also defended his White House ballroom project against Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory comparison and questioned who funded Obama's Chicago presidential center. He praised Democrat Haley Stevens's endorsement of Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan as "brave."
Elsewhere, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the Republican Senate nominee, called Democrat James Talarico a "democratic socialist." Ohio set an early-voting record, with Vivek Ramaswamy facing Amy Acton for governor and Jon Husted facing Sherrod Brown for Senate.
CNBC's market preview noted that early polling and prediction markets suggest Democrats have a shot at both chambers. Republicans are betting the final push closes that gap.
