Trump to hold ‘Make America Great Again’ rally in Tampa ahead of 2018 midterm elections

President Trump’s campaign announced Monday that a “Make America Great Again” rally will be held in Tampa, Fla., next week.

According to the 2020 campaign, the rally will be held on July 31 at Florida State Fairground Expo Hall. Trump is expected to tackle the topics of the economy and his recent nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

The campaign also said Trump is likely to rally support for several Florida Republican candidates ahead of the 2018 midterm elections in November, including Florida Gov. Rick Scott, who is running against Democrat Sen. Bill Nelson for the Senate, along with Rep. Matt Gaetz for re-election, and Ron DeSanctis for Florida governor.

“As more jobs reports and economic data come out demonstrating a booming economy thanks to President Trump’s tax cuts and other policies, this is the perfect time for a Trump rally in Florida,” Michael Glassner, chief operating officer of the Trump campaign, said in a statement. “President Trump looks forward to discussing the latest record-breaking jobs reports and his nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Floridians can also expect the President to remind them how critically important it is to vote in the mid-term elections this fall to expand the GOP majorities in the House and Senate.”

Trump has already held a total of 35 rallies in Florida, including seven near Tampa, since he announced his presidential bid in 2015.
