Trump has no idea where he's going today
President Trump is starting his week off with a trip out of Washington, but he seems a bit confused about where he's headed.
Trump on Monday morning tweeted that he was "getting ready to address the Farm Convention today in Nashville, Tennessee," adding "love our farmers, love Tennessee."
He may be disappointed to learn, though, that he's not going to Tennessee today, after all. The event he's talking about, which is put on by the American Farm Bureau Federation, is actually being held in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Twitter account for Fox Nashville subsequently made clear to its readers that Trump was not coming there on Monday.

Trump quickly deleted the erroneous tweet. Perhaps he was confused because when he addressed the group in 2018, the event took place in Nashville. He has yet to replace the tweet with another saying he's looking forward to addressing New Orleans, but members of the administration can only hope and pray Trump won't mix the two cities up a second time when he gets on stage later today.
