[0:00] And now to our other big story this

[0:01] Wednesday. President Trump's aggressive

[0:03] campaign blitz to help Republicans. With

[0:06] less than a week to go now until

[0:07] election day. The president held a rally

[0:10] in Chilikothi in Ohio. That will

[0:12] actually be tonight and will mark his

[0:15] third visit to the state this month

[0:17] alone. Yesterday, the president held

[0:19] back-to-back campaign events in Corpus

[1:01] just some of his greatest hits?

[1:03] >> Well, good morning, Arrol. It's good to

[1:04] be with you. It's certainly a lot of the

[1:06] president's greatest hits, but he is

[1:08] ratcheting up the rhetoric when it comes

[1:10] to these Senate races. you saw yesterday

[1:12] in Texas saying to Texas Republicans and

[1:15] MAGA supporters who showed up at that

[1:17] rally to pretend like the president is

[1:19] on the ballot because they cannot risk

[1:22] having James Terrio be their Senate

[1:25] candidate. Even Senate uh or their
