WASHINGTON (AP) — With two days left before polls close, President Donald Trump is traveling to two traditionally Republican states as he looks to help put GOP candidates over the top.

Trump is throwing his political muscle behind Republican statewide candidates ahead of midterm elections that could dramatically reshape his presidency.

The GOP is facing greater headwinds in the House of Representatives.

Trump is set to campaign Sunday in Macon, Georgia, for Republican gubernatorial candidate Brian Kemp and in Chattanooga, Tennessee, on behalf of Republican Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn.

Country singer Lee Greenwood plans to perform Trump favorite “God Bless the U.S.A.” in Chattanooga as well as in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, on Monday.

Trump’s final sprint will take him Monday to Ohio, Indiana and Missouri. His re-election campaign announced Sunday he’ll be joined at his final stop by Fox News personality Sean Hannity and conservative radio star Rush Limbaugh.

Trump plans to spend Election Day conducting get-out-the-vote interviews with local media at the White House, where he is set to watch returns come in.

  1. To my TENNESSEEANS,

    DO NOT BUY Marsha’s WITCH’S BREW!

    Remember, Marsha voted over 70 times to REPEAL the AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE ACT!

    Marsha wants you to buy junk health insurance polices!

    VOTE NO TO MARSHA the WICKED WITCH OF TENNESSEE!

  2. Better be careful of that pesky toilet paper clinging to your shoes when getting on AF-1 in front of all the cameras. Maybe you could use it as a head ornament when blathering on and on at the rallies.

    Toilet paper on his shoe, tin foil on his head.

  4. It’s perfect. Fat ass gets to travel around to spew his acid to his adoring sycophantic crowds. I can’t believe the candidates really think he will help their electoral bids. He’s more like something noxious stuck on the bottom of a shoe. Let him work his magic and help each of them lose! :flushed:

  5. Sunday he’ll be joined at his final stop by Fox News personality Sean Hannity and conservative radio star Rush Limbaugh.
