Trump campaigns at rain-soaked Michigan rally

US President Donald Trump has started a busy day of campaigning with a cold, rain-soaked rally in Lansing, Michigan. Most polls show Trump trailing Democrat Joe Biden in a state that Trump won narrowly in his 2016 victory. The president told the thousands that gathered on Tuesday that “seven days from now we’re going to win the great state of Michigan.”

Some of Trump's supporters waited four hours in the wet, near-freezing temperatures to see him. Trump talked up the economy, which he noted was humming before the pandemic hit. The president says their enthusiasm underscores to him that he’s got momentum going into the final days before the election.
