President Donald Trump is making a big pitch in Iowa as the White House tries to focus on affordability ahead of midterm elections despite fallout over his administration's immigration crackdown. The Republican president first made a stop at a local restaurant, where he taped an interview for Fox News Channel. Afterwards, he delivered a speech on affordability in a suburb of Des Moines. This visit comes amid the Trump administration's handling of the shooting death of ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minnesota. Republicans hope Trump's visit will refocus attention on their tax and spending cuts law.
