President Donald Trump wrapped up his midterm blitz with a rally in Salina, Kansas, energizing the crowd ahead of Tuesday's pivotal elections.
Trump has pushed to supercharge support for Republican candidates across the nation, holding dozens of rallies from Florida to Alaska in recent weeks.
On Sunday, he made his last stop ahead of elections in the Sunflower State, which he campaigned in just under two weeks ago, where he called on voters to "pretend" he's on the ballot in the high-stakes elections.
"For the past 32 days, I've traveled all across the country," the president told the crowd on Sunday. "This is my 30th rally, and I'm closing it down tonight. This is it."
"No other president, I don't believe, I'm sure…has done what I've done in the last two weeks," he added. "We have traveled far and wide…This is actually, this is our last stop. We close it down tonight."
The president asserted that Republicans would flip a longstanding trend of the president's party losing seats in the midterm elections. Since World War II, only two midterm elections have seen the party of the commander-in-chief gain seats in the House of Representatives.
"It never made sense, because if you're doing a great job, you should have a victory," he said. "And we're going to turn that around."
During Sunday's rally, Trump stumped for GOP candidates Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), who is seeking reelection, and state Senator Ty Masterson (R-Kan.), who threw his bid in for the state's governor.
"Just two days from now, the people of Kansas are going to reelect Roger Marshall to the United States Senate. And we're going to elect Ty Masterson as your governor," Trump stated. "We're going to elect, really up and down the line, we're going to go America First — Republicans up and down that line."
The president also bashed the Democrat candidates for senator and governor, Adam Hamilton and state Senator Cindy Holscher (D-Kan.), respectively, whom he deemed as "radical."
"Kansas, you need to defeat the radical left phony running for Senate, the woke pastor named Adam Hamilton," Trump said.
"But Kansas also needs to defeat radical Dumocrat candidate for governor, Cindy Holscher," he later added. "She's so radical that even your current Democrat governor, Laura Kelly, said that she's too extreme for Kansas."
Trump concluded Sunday's rally declaring that Republicans would win the midterms, promising that "together" they would "Make America Great Again."
Though Kansas was his last campaign rally ahead of the midterms, the president is scheduled to speak on Monday at the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., at 2:00 p.m. ET.
