Trump visits Ohio and Kentucky to downplay war's effect on economy and target a top GOP antagonist

President Donald Trump is visiting Ohio and Kentucky as he tries to steady voters' concerns about the economy and to derail the reelection bid of a Republican rival. Trump is set to visit on Wednesday a pharmaceutical company in Cincinnati and talk up his Republican administration's efforts to lower prescription drug prices. Next, Trump will be in the district of Kentucky congressman Thomas Massie, who he's seeking to see defeated in the GOP primary next month. Trump's trip comes as the war in Iran has shaken markets and spiked gas prices when polls showed voters were already wary of his economic policies. Massie says on X this isn't the “America First” Trump promised.
