Trump hits the road for Alabama and Ohio rallies amid low economic approval

Donald Trump is touring Alabama and Ohio this weekend to boost enthusiasm for his party before the upcoming midterms, while a new poll shows only 26% of adults approve his economic management.

The former president will speak at a rally in Alabama on Friday and then travel to Ohio on Saturday as part of a push to energize his base ahead of next month’s midterm elections. A recent poll indicates that just 26% of U.S. adults rate his handling of the economy positively. At the same time, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case challenging his administration’s denial of bond hearings for immigrants, bringing his immigration policies back into the spotlight.

Why it matters

Trump’s campaign push and the Supreme Court case could shape the GOP’s midterm prospects and immigration policy.
