Trump rallies in Iowa and Kansas as Republicans fight to keep Senate and House control
Trump urged voters to back Republican Senate and House candidates as more than 54 million ballots were already cast, officials said.
- On Sunday, November 1, 2026, President Donald Trump headlined a rally in Dubuque, Iowa, promoting GOP candidates including Senate hopeful Ashley Hinson as competitive contests threaten to reshape the national political landscape.
- Officials abruptly canceled the Dubuque event on Thursday, October 29, reversing course about 24 hours later. Republicans attempt to leverage a 180,000-person voter registration advantage to overcome polling showing 60% of Americans disapprove of Trump's job performance.
- Trump asked Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to remind him that farmers will pay no tariffs on exports to Canada, noting they previously paid as much as 400% for milk products. The president claimed these barriers will be eliminated.
- Protesters interrupted the rally chanting at the president, but Trump dismissed them as "paid protesters" receiving $250 from George Soros. He told the booing crowd, "They're paid protesters, don't worry, they go away quickly," as attendees chanted "USA, USA!".
- Democrats hope to flip seats in competitive districts, with former Iowa Senate President Pam Jochum criticizing Hinson for alleged personal enrichment. Trump warned voters against "moderate" Democrats, claiming a vote for any Democrat puts "a deranged group of extremists" into power.
