Listen to the story
President Trump used big rallies to become powerful in politics.
Now he may have a future with fewer rallies.
Trump is spending time in Iowa.

Cancelled means the events did not happen.
News channels talked a lot about the cancellations.
Trump was angry about this coverage.
Coverage means how much news talks about something.
After he got angry, he said the rallies must happen again.
So the events came back.
