President Donald Trump canceled upcoming rallies in Kansas and Iowa, two states with unexpectedly competitive Senate races, with less than a week to go in the midterm elections, the Republican National Committee announced Oct. 29. Trump is stepping back from the campaign trail after weeks of constant rallies that thrust him into the center of the midterm contests. The cancellations mark an abrupt shift in his campaign schedule on the eve of an election where Democrats are threatening to wrest control of Congress from the GOP.
