Trump to take breather from White House, hold rally this weekend

President Donald Trump is returning to the trail.

The president will hold a rally Saturday afternoon at a hangar in Melbourne, Florida. It will be his first campaign-style rally since his so-called thank-you tour during the transition period to states he won in November.

“Join me in Florida this Saturday at 5pm for a rally at the Orlando-Melbourne International Airport!” Trump tweeted from his personal Twitter handle, along with a link for supporters to RSVP.

...that's "campaign trail," in case you wondered.

He's been in office less than a month.

He's been to Mar-a-Lago twice - golfing both times.

He's going again in two days, with a stop for a campaign rally for his 2020 run at the presidency.

I can't think of another president who's had three weeks of four day work weeks in their first month as president and left the White House to go specifically campaign for their next election. He's even got the slogan (and probably memorabilia) all picked out.

He's got a number of positions to fill in his cabinet and on his staff. Working short-staffed isn't going to solve anything.

and done more in his time to undo what the last lot who did nothing but ruin everything.

People just can't accept it can they.

gotta pick at detail, instead of the entire picture. but I'm sure the continued leadership under clinton would have been far better. she doesnt play golf, I suspect. but killing thousands of people and giggling all the while, we can all accept that.

right?

More interaction with the people is good. I don't see what this has to do with a 2020 run. It is fairly normal for political leaders in other parts of the world to give speeches directly to large audiences of people. Go right past the bias and spin of the media establishment.

Going to wait and see what he talks about personally.

a reply to: Byrd

Lots of things happen during a round of golf.

Big deals are closed with a handshake. Perhaps if you dug a little deeper you may find who he played with. That may give you a lead.

As for other Presidents playing golf. Perhaps the last one could be put under the spotlight.

But then, you continue with these anti-Trump ramblings.

As for his picks to be filled ... why not ask Congress what the hold up is.

P

His new slogan (I kid you not... multiple sources...) as announced in an interview is Keep America Great. No, it's not the same as the last one (as he explains.)

The NEW one doesn't have an exclamation point.

No, really.

He'll probably trademark it, too.

Didn't he go to Mar-a-lago with the Japanese Prime Minister for the weekend? What country leader is he going there with this weekend with?

Businessmen often play golf with each other and try to bond. I never understood that but they do it here a lot. I am guessing a lot of heads of state will be going golfing with him during his presidency. Is Israels prime minister going there this weekend?

Campaigning... Already!!!!

He should go fix that EO that is clogging up the court system.

Claims he is campaigning for 2020 with literally no evidence other than Trump will speak to people somewhere.

Okay then...

a reply to: Byrd

He's got the MSM, the Establishment DEMS and the Establishment GOP on his ARSE...

President Trump was voted in by the PEOPLE... not the Establishment...

Kudos to him wanting to make those who elected him Energized....

It's about AMERICA... not the Government

He will probably jump on that after he gets the WH debugged while hes away .

Wow you're worse than fake news with your selective content that is out of context.

From the article.

Saturday, however, will put Trump on friendly turf, likely in front of thousands of raucous supporters and a pool of TV cameras, a chance to be the sole star on stage after holding bilateral news conferences alongside Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday and Wednesday, respectively.

The rally will follow the president’s trip to Charleston, South Carolina, on Friday. White House press secretary Sean Spicer told reporters Tuesday that Trump will attend the rollout of a new Boeing plane: the 787-10 Dreamliner

This guy is busy working!

President Trump will be one state north on Friday.. then the 30 minute flight south to Florida.

""South Carolina has hosted presidential visits before, but never this early into an administration.

After days of speculation, the White House confirmed Tuesday that President Donald Trump will return to South Carolina on Friday, specifically to attend Boeing Co.'s unveiling of its first 787-10 jet at the Dreamliner campus in North Charleston.

It will be Trump's first visit to the Palmetto State since his decisive victory in the state's Republican presidential primary one year ago.""

President Trump works 16-18 hours a day. President Obama, who is 15 years younger, worked 13 hours a day. Trump could "vacation" every weekend, and still get more done than all modern Presidents who preceded him.

cwm

The way they act about everything he does, You'd think they'd be begging him to take a vacation. Nope not the case..

Besides your imagination, do you have any sources for those numbers? PS: Being on Twitter 18 hours a day doesn't count as work.

Dude you won, whats the rally for?
Perplexed.

No big surprise here. I'm sure this will be a regular thing. His precious ego is gonna need some constant cheerleading and recharges from the 'everything Trump does is heavenly' crowd. I'm sure he is having a really hard time being called on his idiocy by the bulk of the populace (and world), fragile as that dude is.

"Everything is going to be so great it'll make your head spin"
"Yayyyyy, you're so smart!"

There are no 3rd-party independent sources. Just the statements from Presidents Obama and Trump, during interviews.

Someone should really tell modern mainstream journalists that.

Time for a balanced view to break up your partasian bickering......

First it seems like these are working "vaccations" rather than relaxing vaccations.

Secound lots of scrutinaty was put on Obama gold habbits so it only seems fair Trumo is put under the microscope too.

But back to your petty left/right bickering....
