Trump will speak at a hastily called meeting of top military leaders, AP source says
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump will speak at a hastily called meeting of top military leaders on Tuesday, according to a White House official.
Hundreds of generals and admirals — senior commanders of the one-star rank or higher and their top advisers — have been summoned by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth from all over the world to the Marine Corps base in Quantico, Virginia, with little notice.
The White House official was not authorized to discuss the president’s plans before a public announcement about his attendance and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Trump told NBC News in an interview Sunday that they would be “talking about how well we’re doing militarily, talking about being in great shape, talking about a lot of good, positive things.”
