United States President Donald Trump has announced that he will spend 32 days travelling and campaigning for the midterm elections in November, which will decide which party controls Congress.
The upcoming race is widely seen as a referendum on Trump’s second term in office, and it could decide whether his political agenda faces legislative hurdles for the next two years.
Trump has even speculated that, if Democrats take control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, he could face a third impeachment.
A Wall Street Journal poll released last week found that Trump’s approval rating sits at 37 percent.
