Former US President Donald J. Trump heads to Ohio State on Saturday where he addressed his supporters in the first political gathering since leaving the White House in January.
Trump came to that state in order to declare support to a Republican candidate who runs for Congress.
He said that he expected big masses to the rally meanwhile some of his hardliner supporters are waiting in tents pitched near the place of the rally.
Those people hope to take seats in the front lines of the rally.
Trump supports during the gathering Max Miller, a conservative candidate and one of his former aides.
The former president seeks to prove that he is still a significant force in the Republican Party's effort to regain control of the Senate and House of Representatives next year.
Trump used his address to the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida, in February to attack his successor, repeat unfounded claims about his election loss to Biden and repeatedly hint that he might make another run for the White House in 2024, according to the US Today.
Analysts expect a repeat performance in Ohio.
“It’s going to be his greatest hits of grievances,” Cohen said. “At the top of that list, of course, is going to be perpetrating ‘the Big Lie’ and talking about how the 2020 election was stolen by Democrats and that he should still be president.”
The Ohio rally comes just four days before Trump is scheduled to visit the U.S.-Mexico border on June 30 with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Trump has repeatedly attacked Biden and his border policies and is expected to do so again in Ohio.
Though he’s no longer in office and is not a candidate for public office – at least not officially – Trump’s rally is part of an overall strategy to keep him in the public eye, Cohen said.
“He’s not going away,” he said. “He’s not leaving the political stage.”
