Eager to return to the campaign trail, President Donald Trump on Wednesday said he'll restart his rallies with an event in Tulsa, Oklahoma next week.

Trump's rally schedule came to a sudden halt three months ago when the COVID-19 pandemic largely shuttered the nation. The president's desire to resume political rallies comes as internal and public surveys show his reelection campaign against Democrat Joe Biden is struggling. He's also looking for a campaign reset as the nation tries to adjust to a new normal after contending with the virus, a teetering economy and weeks of nationwide protests against racial injustice. The president said an announcement on a new venue would be made in the near future.
