Trump escapes the Beltway as challenges mount
NASHVILLE — President Donald Trump is returning to the road, rallying supporters to recapture the enthusiasm of his campaign and reassuring them about his tumultuous early days in the White House.
It’s a welcome distraction for a president whose first months in office have been dominated by self-inflicted controversy and roadblocks, courtesy of federal courts and a divided Congress.
“We have done far more, I think maybe more than anybody’s done in this office in 50 days, that I can tell you,” Trump said to cheers from thousands of supporters at a campaign rally in Nashville, Tennessee.
In Trump’s rally telling, things in Washington are going great. He’s been cracking down on illegal immigration, is “way ahead of schedule” on his southern border wall and is on the verge of passing a new health care plan that “does so much for you.”
