Trump visits Peterbilt plant in Denton, Texas, then rallies in Durant, Oklahoma
President Donald Trump visited the Peterbilt Motors plant in Denton, Texas, on Thursday to tout his economic agenda, then headed to an evening campaign rally in Durant, Oklahoma, about 85 miles north of Dallas, CBS Texas and the Associated Press reported. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the Republican Senate nominee trailing Democrat James Talarico in recent polls, was planning to join Trump in Denton; in Oklahoma, Trump campaigns with Republican gubernatorial candidate Mike Mazzei against Democrat Cyndi Munson. The trip opens what Trump called a 32-day midterm blitz before Nov. 3; Vice President JD Vance campaigned the same day with Florida gubernatorial candidate Byron Donalds in Lakeland while White House chief of staff Susie Wiles has described a near-daily presidential schedule through Election Day.
