Trump says he rescheduled rallies after urging from GOP campaigns in area: 'Thought I could relax'

President Trump told a Florida audience Friday night that he rescheduled two rallies for the weekend after it was requested by Republican campaigns in the area. 

The president had initially canceled the physical rallies in Iowa and Kansas in favor of calling into tele-rallies as voters and candidates gear up for the midterm elections Tuesday. Both rallies will take place on Sunday.

"I thought this was going to be my last one," Trump told the Daytona Beach crowd. "I thought I could relax. Twenty-eight days in a row of this crap is lot, it’s a lot. My voice is about operating at about 49.2%.

"They called me in Iowa and they called me in Kansas, and they said, 'Sir, would it be possible to do a little rally of about 50,000 people each?''" he continued. "And I said, 'Does it matter?' They said, 'We just want to make sure.' So on Sunday, while you’re all watching football, I’ll be traveling in a very beautiful airplane to Iowa, to Kansas."

The rallies will take place in Salina, Kansas, and Dubuque, Iowa. 

The president will campaign for Kansas Republican Sen. Roger Marshall, who is in a tighter race than expected, and Iowa Rep. Ashley Hinson, who is running to fill the seat of retiring GOP Sen. Joni Ernst.
