President Donald Trump is reportedly planning a rally shortly before the Alabama run-off election on behalf of Tommy Tuberville, the former Auburn University head football coach, in his senate bid against former Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. 

“Two sources familiar with the plans” told CNN that the event will be held in Sessions’ hometown of Mobile, Alabama, where the then-Alabama senator joined Trump at a rally in 2015 to praise his immigration plan. Sessions formally endorsed Trump in February 2016. He was announced as the presidents-elect’s first pick for attorney general shortly after Trump’s upset election victory against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
