Trump will hold a campaign-style rally in Florida this weekend
President Trump will spend his third consecutive weekend at Mar-a-Lago, his private club in Palm Beach, Florida, after a trip to a Boeing plant in Charleston, South Carolina, on Friday. On Saturday evening, Trump announced on Twitter Wednesday, he will hold a rally at a hangar in the Orlando-Melbourne airport. The White House hasn't explained why he is holding his first campaign-style rally since December, and his first since becoming president, but Trump is believed to be energized by speaking in front of a crowd of enthusiastic supporters. He scheduled the rally because he wanted to "go to his people" and "bring back the crowds," a Trump friend told The Washington Post's Robert Costa.
