In final push, Trump rallies in red states, offering a rosy and off-script message
Trump's final rally push in red states signals late-stage election momentum and messaging strategy.
Context
What happened: In the final days before the election, Trump rallied in Mississippi, Texas, Ohio, South Carolina and Kansas, states described as longtime Republican strongholds, offering a rosy and off-script message.
Key numbers: Trump's personal oil and gas holdings are estimated at $22.5 million to $81.6 million, up from $12.6 million
Why it matters: Polls show an overwhelming majority of Americans unhappy with the economy, and the article says Tuesday's results will test whether his message still moves his base or whether he has become a liability for a party at risk of losing Congress.
