Since the verb "fall" is used in the form "falling" here, you can use a verb before the subject "headlines", although it is not necessary. You can say "there are headlines about President Trump's rally..." or "headlines about President Trump's rally are falling short...". However, it is not necessary to have a verb here at the beginning of the sentence because the verb is already implied.
