(CNN)President Donald Trump is traveling to Indiana on Thursday to campaign with Mike Braun, the Republican attempting to unseat Democratic Sen. Joe Donnelly in one of Republicans' best pickup opportunities in November's midterm elections.


Trump will visit Evansville, in southwestern Indiana, for an 8 p.m. ET rally with Braun. He'll also speak at a private roundtable with supporters at a fundraising event.


It's the President's second visit to Indiana since the state's May Senate primary to campaign against a senator he dubbed "Sleepin' Joe."

Jacob Leaman from Evansville came to protest Trump and Braun. “I believe (Braun is) completely bad for this state. I believe he’s bad for farmers, I believe that he is bad for trade in general in this state, that he supports Trump’s tariffs.”

He added that he feels like “Donnelly left us out to dry,” as a Democrat by trying to appeal to Trump’s base. “I would encourage Donnelly to represent Democratic values.”

Trisha Hope came from Huston Texas to sell her book “Just the Tweets,” a compilation of Trump’s tweets. “This is a collector’s item. People need this book. The president speaks this every day and it needs to be captured in a collectible way.”

So far, she’s sold 3,000 copies. The book started as a website documenting Trump’s tweets for older people who don’t have Twitter, she said.

And not Trump's rally. Even though the guide says "President Trump Rally in Indiana"

One more "fuck you" from McCain, from the grave

Hahahahaha

4. Of Course Trump Would Have a Rally While People Are Remembering McCain

Classless. It is sort of like the correspondent's dinner when Trump had a rally because he did not like that he was not the center of attention.
