Trump heads to Las Vegas to rally Republicans and talk tax cuts — live updates

President Trump is heading to Las Vegas, where his schedule includes a meeting with supporters, an address to the Nevada Republican Party Convention and a roundtable discussion on tax cuts.

The president is making the trip on Saturday as the midterm election season heats up in the Silver State, where Republican Sen. Dean Heller is vulnerable as he faces re-election. Mr. Trump says he needs more Republicans in the Senate to be able to pass everything from an infrastructure package to comprehensive immigration reform.

While in Las Vegas, Mr. Trump could speak about illegal immigration and the need for a more secure southern border -- even as he threw a wrench in Republicans' plans to vote on a GOP compromise bill next week, tweeting that Republicans are "wasting their time" on immigration until after the midterms.

I’d like a list of just the heads of state and their representative that have either been at the WH (or Mara LaGro) or he has flown to visit. Am betting it’s more in the first 500 days then many had in entire term. He does lots of business one on one Very efficient !

Trump is wearing me out.

Too much winning...

I read what he’s up to each day, and frankly, it just wears me out. LOL How does he do it?

The guy is sharp as a tack. He keeps moving us forward. He takes media hype in stride. He neutralizes their sharpest barbs.

I don’t think folks can fathom what an incredible president this guy is, and he’s on our side.

Best election ever... best vote ever...

It will be interesting in 2020, when Trump wins a 65% voting majority, when you consider the media has told the nation his approval is just 45%. on his best day.

“”””It will be interesting in 2020, when Trump wins a 65% voting majority, when you consider the media has told the nation his approval is just 45%. on his best day.”””””

He won the last election when he fought 16 competitors, the media, the entire government, his own party and a candidate who was already selected as the next president.

The next one should be much easier.

Meh. Princess Running Beaver is gonna be in Reno today. LOL!

Odd thing is that I haven’t see a single conservative commentary about going to her assembly and shouting her down. But, jeffy sessions is gonna be in town Monday for a school safety/resource meeting and the “NOH8” crowd is posting all kinds of meet up and sign pick ups to assault the meeting. Weird huh?

However Trump will run as if he is behind. No 5 rallies in a day, he will go to 6 or 7. More tweeting. He will apply pressure everywhere. Amazing

NV is tough, even worse than AZ. It will take a miracle to hold it in November.

Yes, and Nixon in 1972 only got 60.7%.

Nixon won every state losing only the District of Colombia that year.

So 65% was probably too high.

You’re making me think.

These next two years, as the propaganda ramps up its claim Trump is an evil monster, will set up the election for a slam dunk: his achievements that have helped Americans vs their lies. It’s going to be crystal clear, and their screams of horror now are going to come back to bite them.

He may crack the Black vote for the first time in at least 60 years.

I agree with your take on it.

I’d love to see 1)the propaganda finally fail, with today’s public sharper than in the 20th century
And 2) the Gullibles realize that their desperate need to be approved of by their friends IS WHAT MADE THEM CHOOSE STUPIDLY and that they were wrong and will be more discerning in the future about what they hear and read. They use the word “brave” a lot, but they don’t understand that being gay or trans today isn’t brave. Supporting Trump is brave. Brave is going against misguided acceptable behavior.

The best part is that he's working for us - the American People ...
