Summary
Durant, Oklahoma, opened Trump’s monthlong midterm push as he urged supporters to treat November “like I’m running” and said a Republican loss could lead to his impeachment.
A renewed $5,000 cash offer to every American adult if Republicans keep Congress drew some of the loudest applause, underscoring his focus on energizing loyal backers.
Trump framed the stakes around control of Congress, border security and economic stability, while warning that Democrats would bring socialism, open borders and rising crime.
About 35 House and Senate races will decide control of Congress, but Trump acknowledged he was speaking largely to an already friendly Oklahoma crowd he said was headed for a landslide Republican win.
