Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump made his third visit to North Carolina in as many weeks on Tuesday, pushing a new end-in-sight message on coronavirus. In North Carolina, however, the promise of a vaccine by sometime in October might come too late. There was little to no physical distancing at Trump's North Carolina rally, which took place outside on an airport tarmac. Trump has visited North Carolina three times in the past three weeks, an indication of the state's importance to his electoral strategy. Though taxpayer funded, the President's official events often take on a political tone and Florida is another battleground state Trump is hoping to retain.
