Trump Cancels Weekend Rallies, Shifts to Phone-In Midterm Events

President Donald Trump canceled planned weekend campaign stops in Kansas and Iowa on Thursday, and his allies said he would instead phone in to events nationwide after four weeks of travel to boost Republicans’ election chances.

“I’m not going to Kansas because he’s doing very well,” Trump told reporters upon arrival at Joint Base Andrews on Thursday, referring to Sen. Roger Marshall, a Republican. “I’m going to do a tele-rally.

“We are going to have a strong Tuesday night.”

Marshall, a fellow Republican, is running for reelection against Democratic challenger Adam Hamilton in the state.
