Trump’s appearance was aimed at helping Republican Rick Saccone in a district Trump won overwhelmingly in 2016 as part of a narrow win in Pennsylvania. A day after getting news that the U.S. economy produced 313,000 jobs last month, Trump said his policies are paying off. “I may leave fast or we may sit down and make the greatest deal for the world,” Trump said. The race could signal how much help Trump can provide Republican congressional candidates trying to keep control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate in midterm elections next November. But Trump hopes a strong economy and tax cuts he pushed through Congress in December will help him beat the odds.
