Happy Friday! President Trump today reversed course and reinstated canceled rallies for this weekend in Kansas and Iowa. Trump told reporters that his change of heart, with visits to both states now planned for Sunday, was because he had gotten requests from people in both states that he show up in person. But the president reportedly had been [bothered](https://www.cnn.com/2026/10/30/politics/trump-rally-cancellation-midterms) by media coverage questioning the cancellations of his final midterm rallies, and [CNN says](https://www.cnn.com/2026/10/30/politics/trump-rally-cancellation-midterms) that Trump himself "demanded the rallies be reinstated." Trump said he still plans to hold several "telerallies" for candidates on Monday. Have a happy Halloween!
