Welcome back, Trump! Another Campaign Event in Arizona!
Former President Donald Trump is making his way back to Arizona, the Grand Canyon State, for yet another campaign event. This visit comes less than a month after his last appearance in Glendale on August 23. His upcoming stop is scheduled for September 12 in Tucson.
The focus of this event will be on the economy and the increasing cost of housing. Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, was in Mesa just a week ago to address the crowd at an event.
