Donald Trump plans ‘victory tour’
President-elect Donald Trump is hitting the road in the coming weeks for a new round of rallies to celebrate his election, according to his campaign advance-team director, George Gigicos.
“We’re working on a victory tour now; it will happen in the next couple of weeks,” Gigicos told reporters at Trump Tower on Thursday, per the presidential transition pool report.
Gigicos said Trump’s victory tour will start some time “after Thanksgiving.” He did not identify any of the places Trump plans to visit but said they would focus on “the swing states we flipped over” and other places where Trump scored wins on Election Day last week.
Large rallies were a hallmark of Trump’s presidential bid, and he often delighted in pointing out the size of his crowds. Aides have said the events were a key source of energy for Trump during the grueling campaign and, prior to Election Day, some speculated he might continue holding rallies even if he lost the race.
