Trump Stumps for Graham in South Carolina, Vance Delivers Economic Speech in Ohio
President Trump is campaigning in South Carolina to support Sen. Darline Graham ahead of Tuesday's GOP primary runoff against Rep. Ralph Norman. Vice President Vance traveled to Ohio to give an economic address, defending the administration's plan to shrink the national debt. The Supreme Court may also rule on a halted White House ballroom construction project.

Trump's temporary suspension of beef import tariffs is intended to ease consumer price pressures, but the move has drawn sharp criticism from domestic ranchers and some lawmakers who argue it undercuts American producers. His subsequent trip to South Carolina aims to bolster Darline Graham, a political newcomer facing a runoff against Rep. Ralph Norman after a debate performance that raised questions about her national security knowledge.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court's administrative stay, issued by Chief Justice Roberts, temporarily allows above-ground construction on the White House ballroom to continue while the court reviews an emergency appeal. The order lacks explanation and does not indicate a final ruling.
