Trump plans to attend Georgia-Alabama National Championship in AtlantaATLANTA - President Donald Trump is planning to attend the national college football championship game between Georgia and Alabama on Monday in Atlanta, according to the Atlanta Police Department.
He is set to be hosted by Nick Ayers, a Georgia native who is Vice President Mike Pences chief of staff, and his wife Jamie Ayers. First Lady Melania Trump is also expected to attend the game, which will be held at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
APD says it is working with the U.S. Secret Service on security plans.
Its not immediately certain whether two other top Trump allies in Georgia Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue and U.S. Sen. David Perdue will join them.
