Trump to Visit Camp David After Spending Month at White House

Source: The Hill

President Donald Trump will travel to Camp David on Friday, his first time leaving the White House compound in over a month.

The trip, announced in the president’s daily schedule released Thursday night, comes as Trump prepares to resume travel as part of his strategy to reopen the country from shutdown measures designed to contain the coronavirus.

It’s not clear how long he’ll stay at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland. He last left the White House on March 28, when he traveled to Virginia to see off a Navy medical ship sailing to New York. It has since left the city as its virus case-load leveled off.

Trump is also to travel to Arizona next week, a crucial swing state where he plans to visit a Honeywell International Inc. plant making medical supplies to fight the pandemic (and hold a rally).

Camp David and the White House are just about equidistant from Trump National.

instead of hiding out, seeing as he claims everything is overblown. He should put on his big boy pants as we were told to do.

Hate when that happens. Maybe I'll go outside and flip the copters off.

Edited: I googled there isn't one, but there is a driving range with one hole near the helipad.

That was Bush 1's cover story every time he snuck off to go fishing in Florida.

How many PPE's could be sent to hospitals for his little va ca and the Jet fly overs? Wasteful spending over "Lindsay Graham's" dead body. The country is unemployed but he can spend for this shit. The country is dying but..........😡🖕🏻🖕🏼🖕🏽🖕🏾🖕🏿maybe he should invite his unmasked militia, good people, over for a cook out with meat provided by Tyson. At least he could get a good ass licking and cheer up.
