Trump will spend his time campaigning in Virginia

Donald Trump will campaign in a state where he has a chance to win. After the presidential debate, he will campaign in Virginia.

CBS News reports.
Former President Donald Trump plans to return to Virginia for a campaign event on June 28, the day after the first presidential debate, reports CBS News.

Sources tell CBS News the campaign has not yet confirmed a location, but is looking in the Virginia Beach-Hampton Roads area. The area is home to a significant military population and the US Navy's fighter-attack aircraft fleet on the East Coast.

Trump's campaign says it hopes to build momentum from the debate to carry the former president “to the next phase of the campaign,” a source told CBS News.

The debate is in Atlanta. Trump would have been better served electorally to campaign in Georgia after the debate, but instead he's heading to Virginia, a state he has little chance of winning.

The Virginia stop appears to be one of those moves where Trump thinks he's going to make a show of strength by appearing in a state that's getting bluer as time goes by and trying to convince people he has a chance to win.

Trump: no.

The former president continues to make bad decisions on everything from spending almost nothing on the campaign trail to campaigning in places like New York, New Jersey and Virginia where he has little to no chance of winning.
