In March 2026, President Trump is scheduled to visit Ohio and Kentucky. The trip aims to address economic concerns stemming from the war with Iran and target Republican Representative Thomas Massie, who has opposed Trump. In Cincinnati, Ohio, Trump will tour Thermo Fisher Scientific to promote efforts to lower prescription drug prices and highlight his administration's focus on affordability ahead of the midterm elections. Following this, he will travel to Hebron, Kentucky, to support a primary challenger against Representative Massie. This visit tests Trump's influence within the Republican party and his ability to maintain an economic focus amidst growing anxieties about rising prices and the conflict in Iran.
