LEXINGTON, Ky. - Pushing to help a Republican governor hold onto his office, President Donald Trump barnstormed for Gov. Trump supporters packed Rupp Arena, the famed home of the University of Kentucky basketball team, and roared when Trump saluted Bevin. Beshear, meanwhile, spent the day campaigning in western Kentucky and, despite Trump’s presence, focused on state issues. Among those with an especially keen interest: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who’s on the ballot himself next year in Kentucky. The governor called for a crackdown on illegal immigration and a ban on “sanctuary cities.” He denounced the impeachment probe.
