Former President Donald Trump is planning a rally in Wildwood, New Jersey, at the southern tip of the Jersey Shore, a heavily Republican area in the traditionally blue state of New Jersey. Trump, who lost New Jersey to President Biden by 16 points in the previous election, expressed optimism about his chances in the state during a recent radio interview.
Despite Democratic opposition, Trump's campaign is eyeing opportunities to flip blue states like Minnesota and Virginia, where he believes he can garner support from rural white voters without college degrees. Internal surveys shared by Trump's campaign advisers suggest that both Minnesota and Virginia are potential targets for the former president.
