Doocy: Trump Will Be Traveling A Lot In October, “Possibly As Much As A Trump Rally A Day”

FOX News White House correspondent reported on Friday that President Donald Trump plans to travel often in October to campaign for Republican candidates in the midterm election.

PETER DOOCY, FOX NEWS SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: Yeah, it’s a big advantage and a big part of President Trump’s pitch to Republicans right now is just to pretend like he is on the ballot, and we are hearing some whispers of a ton of Trump travel in October, possibly as much as a Trump rally a day in the most competitive states and districts. And that is something that you don’t typically see from a president in a set of midterms that are historically very hard for the president’s party. BRIAN KILMEADE, FOX NEWS HOST: Especially Peter before Labor Day. I mean, it shows his concern that he would stop in Texas. Do you sense that he’s going to personally give Ken Paxton a wake up call? DOOCY: That could be coming. I think behind closed doors, they are pretty blunt. But, you know, when you look at it and President Trump says pretend like I am on the ballot, really, he is on the ballot because and I haven’t really heard anybody here at the White House making this point yet kind of surprising. But he is on the ballot in that if Democrats win control of the House or the Senate, it’s just going to be constant investigations. They’re going to be trying to use Congress and all of the power over there to unwind everything that they have done for the last two years and help whoever their pick is for 2028. And so Donald Trump, his name might not be right there, but he is on the ballot at pretty much every line.
