Don't look now, but President Trump is planning to start hosting rallies again within the next two weeks, Politico reports.
The president has gone rally-less since the coronavirus pandemic struck the United States in full force in March, but as the country eases back into some form of normalcy, his re-election campaign is looking to take advantage of the opening before the race against the Democratic nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, heats up. As Politico notes, rallies are Trump's favorite way to connect with his supporters, so it's no surprise that he's itching to get them going again, especially in the wake of the pandemic and nationwide protests against police brutality, two major events that have enhanced criticism of the president.
