Democrats are hopeful that they&#8217;ll have the support to win back the House in the November midterm elections, while Republicans scramble to maintain control.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we lose the midterms, you&#8217;ll lose so many of the things that we&#8217;re talking about, so many of the assets that we&#8217;re talking about, so many of the tax cuts that we&#8217;re talking about,&#8221; Mr. Trump said in a rally-like speech to supporters at the Horizon Events Center in Clive, Iowa. &#8220;And it would lead to very bad things. We&#8217;ve got to win the midterms. I mean, I&#8217;m here because I love Iowa, but I&#8217;m here because we&#8217;re starting the campaign to win the midterms.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president has endorsed three of Iowa&#8217;s four Republican House members \u2014 Reps. Ashley Hinson, Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn. The fourth, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/iowa-governors-race-2026-randy-feenstra-rob-sand\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Rep. Randy Feenstra<\/a><\/span>, traveled with Mr. Trump throughout the day. Feenstra isn&#8217;t seeking reelection because he&#8217;s running for governor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All six members of Iowa&#8217;s congressional delegation \u2014 four House members and two senators \u2014 are Republicans. At this point, Mr. Trump&#8217;s support among Republicans remains strong: <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-inflation-cbs-news-poll\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">A CBS News poll<\/a><\/span> from mid-January found that nationally, Mr. Trump has a 90% approval rating among Americans who identify as Republican. The same poll found that 69% of those who identify as independent disapprove of the president. According to one source, the president intends to campaign as if he were on the ticket.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump mused to voters Tuesday, however, that he might like to be on a ticket again. Even though he isn&#8217;t on the ballot and can&#8217;t run for president again, Mr. Trump began his speech by reminiscing about past elections and teasing a fourth bid for the presidency.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Should we do it a fourth time?&#8221; he goaded the crowd with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Multiple protesters were escorted out of the speech Tuesday night, and he praised law enforcement&#8217;s swift response.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president&#8217;s speech focused heavily on tariffs, agriculture and financial aid for farmers. The $12 billion federal financial subsidies were deemed necessary by the White House amid the president&#8217;s trade war. China halted soybean and corn purchases from the U.S. in response to Mr. Trump&#8217;s high tariff rates, hurting U.S. farmers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/01\/27\/4bc3d196-f5a1-45d9-9ead-de5933616d2c\/thumbnail\/620x413\/9554fbaff9046b934bb6f3f8ef873090\/ap26027820288304.jpg#\" alt=\"Trump \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/01\/27\/4bc3d196-f5a1-45d9-9ead-de5933616d2c\/thumbnail\/620x413\/9554fbaff9046b934bb6f3f8ef873090\/ap26027820288304.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/01\/27\/4bc3d196-f5a1-45d9-9ead-de5933616d2c\/thumbnail\/1240x826\/76bf42ca96ec0a70868ed2d22b2423c9\/ap26027820288304.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">President Donald Trump appears during an event at the Horizon Events Center in Clive, Iowa, Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Mark Schiefelbein \/ AP<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Mr. Trump visited a local restaurant before his speech, greeting diners and speaking briefly to reporters. He told reporters he plans to travel a lot ahead of the midterms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m going around,&#8221; Mr. Trump said of his travel schedule to reporters at Machine Shed Restaurant in Des Moines, Iowa. &#8220;And I&#8217;m going around because hopefully we win the midterms.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added it&#8217;s &#8220;very scary&#8221; because the party of the president very rarely wins in a midterm election year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The state will have an open race for governor after Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds last year said she would not seek a third term. Multiple Republicans are running in the GOP primary. On the Democratic side, Rob Sand leads the field and has so far raised roughly $9.5 million in 2025, over twice Feenstra&#8217;s $4.3 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nunn was likely to run for governor, too, until Mr. Trump asked him to seek reelection in Iowa&#8217;s 3rd Congressional District, a competitive seat. Nunn won his seat by less than four points in 2024, a much more favorable year for Republicans than 2026 is expected to be. Democrats led Republicans on the generic ballot in recent polls.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump has not yet endorsed any candidates in the Iowa 4th Congressional District, Feenstra&#8217;s seat, or in the Iowa 3rd District, where Hinson is seeking to replace <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/joni-ernst-retiring-2026-iowa-senate\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Sen.
