President Trump will hold a rally in Macomb County, Michigan, next Tuesday to celebrate his first 100 days in office, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Wednesday. This will be Trump's first big rally since his inauguration and his first visit to Michigan since winning the battleground state in the 2024 presidential election, NBC News reports. Before the rally, Trump will be in Rome for Pope Francis' funeral on Saturday, the first foreign trip of his second term. "President Trump is excited to return to the great state of Michigan next Tuesday, where he will rally in Macomb County to celebrate the FIRST 100 DAYS!" Leavitt posted on X. She added, per the Detroit News, "Michiganders are benefitting from President Trump's agenda to revitalize ... our economy and secure the southern border, and the best is yet to come!"
Trump visited Michigan about two dozen times during the 2024 election cycle, including at least three visits to Macomb County—a Republican-leaning county near Detroit that he ended up winning by double digits. The rally comes after Trump's recent meeting with Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer regarding tariffs and manufacturing, a discussion she expected to be private. Instead, she was brought into the Oval Office for a media event on April 9. Trump signed an executive order while she was there, directing the Justice Department to investigate officials from his first administration who disagreed with Trump's false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
