Trump plans Choctaw Nation rally amid rare presidential visits to Indian Country
A Thursday rally on Choctaw Nation land is part of Trump's push through deep-red states and is notable because presidents rarely visit tribal nations.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — President Donald Trump is holding a campaign rally on the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma on Thursday, putting him in the company of just a handful of U.S. presidents who have visited tribal nations while in office.
The rally is part of Trump’s recent campaign push through deep red states, where he has been stumping for Republican candidates and promoting his agenda ahead of November’s midterm elections.
