Trump hits campaign trail in key battleground as race to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene heats up
This feels like a quiet policy shift.
President Donald Trump heads south to Georgia on Thursday, as he stops in a crucial midterm battleground state to showcase his administration's efforts to boost the economy.
White House Press Secretary Karolina Leavitt said on the eve of the trip that Trump "will visit two local businesses and give a speech on his efforts to make life affordable for working people."
But Trump's visit to Rome, Georgia, in the northwest part of the state, comes with early voting underway in the special election to replace former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Once a MAGA firebrand, she had a major falling out with the president before stepping down from Congress at the beginning of the year.
A jam-packed field of 18 candidates are vying to succeed Taylor Greene in Georgia's solidly red 14th Congressional District.

"They say whoever I endorse is going to win. But we have a lot of good candidates that want to take her place."
The president earlier this month did make an endorsement in the race, backing Clay Fuller, who is a former local district attorney.
TRUMP HITS ROAD TO SELL ECONOMIC WINS AS MIDTERMS HEAT UP
With so many candidates in the race, it's likely no candidate tops 50% in the March 10 election, which would then force an April 7 runoff.
Trump's stop in Georgia, where he's expected to spotlight inflation, energy costs, and unemployment, comes two days after top members of the president's political team huddled in a closed-door strategy session with Trump administration Cabinet members and their top aides on how best to sell the president's agenda to voters in this year's midterm elections.
The meeting, which sources familiar confirmed to Fox News, was hosted by White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and deputy chief of staff James Blair, who is steering Trump's political strategy.
TRUMP CHEERS STEADY INFLATION NUMBERS AS AFFORDABILITY FIGHT SHAPES 2026 MIDTERM BATTLE
According to sources, the message during a slide presentation by chief pollster and strategist Tony Fabrizio was that the economy will be the top issue on the minds of voters, and that the White House needs to spotlight its efforts on easing affordability.
