WASHINGTON President Donald Trump is scheduled to travel to Iowa on Jan. 27 to deliver a speech focused on the economy and energy, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles told reporters Wednesday.
The president is expected to begin weekly travel ahead of the midterm elections in which the GOP is aiming to improve its razor-thin majority in the U.S. House and maintain its lead in the U.S. Senate.
The anticipated travel will also come as Trump seeks to boost his affordability policy blitz and as the cost of living marks a focal point of the midterm elections. On Tuesday, stocks plunged after Trump doubled down on threats to acquire Greenland and pledged tariffs on eight European countries that opposed his plans.
While traveling to Davos, Switzerland, with Trump for the World Economic Forum, Wiles told the traveling press that officials in Trumps Cabinet would also be increasing their domestic travel.
