AI analysis

Story summary

President Donald Trump has been holding near-daily campaign rallies across the United States ahead of the November midterm elections to boost turnout for Republicans aiming to retain control of Congress. In October alone, Trump spent about 70 hours aboard Air Force One traveling between these events. His entourage includes not just political strategists and aides but also celebrities like boxing legends Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather. During a rally in Michigan on October 25th, Trump encouraged the crowd to compliment rapper Nicki Minaj’s behind, while she had previously expressed support for him by appearing at his campaign events and discussing his business acumen. The inclusion of Minaj and other high-profile guests is part of Trump's strategy to energize conservative voters as Republicans play defense in key states like Texas and Michigan.
